Haven't you read the article before commenting ? He isn't complaining about the new versioning (although he mentions that he finds it stupid), what he complains about is its implementation:
> Chrome is running on a major version update once every 6 weeks or so, but the beauty of chrome is that it’s silent and quiet, doesn’t interrupt the user. Google being the law unto themselves has decided on this major version system, and thats ok, because they hide it very well, most users aren’t bothered by it, or could find it if you asked them.
> Firefox updates on the other hand, are of the most obnoxious variety intrusive, inconvenient, and obstructive. It forces the user to make a choice to upgrade, forces the user to stop browsing then insists on taking a very long time to upgrade. Most intrusive.
> Once upgraded it disables most the plugins as they are not yet compatible, thats the real catch, with the auto disable of all plugins till they are compatible I’m left with a version of firefox that basically doesn’t work for me.
