Een paar dagen eerder dan verwacht is Mozilla 1.5 beta op het internet verschenen. In deze versie zijn een aantal kleine, maar soms erg vervelende, bugs geplet. Ook zijn er wat kleine dingen veranderd aan de render engine van Mozilla, Gecko genaamd. Het onvolledige changelog, aldus de auteurs , is hier onder te lezen. Een linkje naar het originele changelog mag niet ontbreken in een meukje, dus die kan je hier vinden:
