Bon Echo 2.0.0.1pre

Last night when the usual nightly build update hit, I noticed something odd. I was getting a warning box informing me with this build several of my extensions were not be compatible. Odd, why would a nightly on the 2.0 builds do this? After I closed the warning box the installed went as normal.

However when I restarted Firefox after the install I had a new tab open which was displaying a Mozilla 404 page. This page that is not found is What’s New Bon Echo 2.0.0.1pre. Now, it is possible by the time this blog entry is published Mozilla will have uploaded this page. The official release for Firefox 2.0.0.1 is not for another 3 weeks so it could be say this is a Release Candidate.

Seems I didn’t realize how many extensions I had “forced” to work with Firefox 2. I have found updates to some by going to the extension’s page on Firefox Add-ons and viewing the comments and/or the home page for that add-on.
