    Firefox 54 still supports ML

    Hi, I am still running ML on an old 1 gen MBA. I have successfully installed the new FF 54 by changing the LSMinimumSystemVersion in Show Package contents - Contents - info.plist to 10.8.0 So ML will still have a updated, secured and supported browser for at least a couple more years… Cheers

    What Does Firefox 49 Mean for TenFourFox?

    So Firefox 49 was released a while ago, and requiring 10.9 or higher, whereas 48 required 10.6. Does this mean anything for TenFourFox? Will the higher requirement make it harder to port Firefox to PowerPC? Thanks.
