It works for Ubuntu and Chrome.
Google fails me. Where is that quote from?
You know, if they want to keep up with Chrome, they could just skip 5 through 9 and go directly to 10.
Wait, that sounds familiar...

"Our browser goes to 11"
I think this is way more interesting than high version numbers: "Process-per-tab to mitigate effects of crashes"
This is really quite silly. The addons.moz site will have to be modified to deal with version increases as well as extension authors will have to start paying serious attention to version bumps or users will either end up with non-working addons (due to incompatible version numbers) or having to overrider the compat check (how many people do you know that aren't technical that know how to do that)?

heh I don't take them serious anymore until FF 4 comes out of beta..
Amen. FF4 final was supposed to be released at the end of last year. Now we've had 10 betas? C'mon.

Since my company is building a plugin/extension for firefox, news like this makes me shudder.
should just ship Firefox 2011, instantly beating Chrome 9 by 2002!
Why not do the Slackware move, and just skip straight to 7?
Reminds me of a quote from years ago:
I don't know what we are building yet, but we are building it in Sybase with stored procedures. – I think ultimately every man, woman, and child in the US lost $0.50 to that project.
