I didn't say anything that could be remotely construed as calling enterprises dumb. I said that they have not, and in my opinion, should not, be Firefox's target.
- fierarul 15y agoActually it's unclear by reading this blog post alone what are you trying to say. It becomes clear if people read the end of your previous post[1] where you say: "For corporate deployments, there has to be a stable branch. I bet someone is probably going to make a nice business out of creating and maintaining a stable branch…" 1. http://mike.kaply.com/2011/06/21/firefox-rapid-release-process/ http://mike.kaply.com/2011/06/21/firefox-rapid-release-proce...
- mindcrime 15y agoWell, you believe what you believe, and nobody can fault you for your beliefs, in and of themselves. I happen to disagree with you, but that's not my issue with your comment... my issue is that - regardless of what you intended - your tone came off as very arrogant, dismissive and mean-spirited. And, like it or not, there is a PR aspect to consider anytime someone - who is as visible and well known as you are - says something that sparks controversy. I think this whole thing has done some damage to the Firefox brand, and that makes me sad, as I've been a Firefox (and before that, Mozilla... going back as far as Mozilla M2, IIRC) supporter for a long time.
- jubalfh 15y agoNow what you actually said is: ‘if you want to provide standarised and stable non-Windows browsing environment, screw you, sucker’. Yes, yes, I heard that ‘someone go and make business of stabilising the crap out of firefox’ song. Well, there's one problem – there's no such product yet.
