I agree completely. Firefox is cutting off (or has cut off) its own roots. "Power-users" are not where the money lies--at least, not in their eyes. Making the best, most powerful, user-extensible browser is no longer interesting or glamorous to them. Mozilla is now chasing after fireflies: here one moment, gone the next. I have come to doubt that Mozilla will exist in 5 years--at least, not in a form that is recognizable as the Mozilla we have known. Mozilla has lost its way; it's having an identify crisis. It seems to me that their decisions are made with respect to maintaining their expensive facilities and furthering social causes, rather than with respect to maintaining their technical excellence and furthering their user-liberating causes. This can't last much longer. Yahoo is having its own issues, and they are Mozilla's principle patron. When Yahoo's deal expires, how will Mozilla sell itself to its next patron, lacking a clear identity and purpose? Mozilla needs to be reborn as yet another Phoenix from its own ashes. Lacking this, I am hopeful that the Pale Moon fork of Firefox will live on and become the "next Firefox." Its developers seem to have good ideas and priorities about stability and extensibility, keeping it based on the pre-Aurora codebase. But it's always a shame to see a good project go astray and facilitate its own demise. Signed, Developer, Firefox user, desktop and mobile
