Neil Turner has done a pretty good job describing what’s new in the release candidate of Firefox 0.9. Obviously with being out of the office and having spent the last few days just getting caught up here, and trying to get together pictures from the trip and take care of other personal tech items, I haven’t even downloaded it yet, and well, probably won’t get around to it until it’s in a full release version, so this is good information to keep handy!
