“A lot of people felt that Mozilla’s code base was
bloated, and that it would have trouble delivering a sleek,
innovative mobile application. Since then, though, the company has
put increasing emphasis on its plans for Fennec.“While Fennec is available for use on some Nokia devices in an
early alpha version, and there is a PC emulation version available
for very early tests, it has not been released in a final, open
source version for widespread use on various mobile platforms. As
Mozilla confirmed this week, Chris Finke has added Fennec
compatibility to his URL Fixer extension. At first glance, that may
not seem like earth-shaking news, but the important thing to note
is that URL Fixer was a Firefox extension. Henke forked it so that
it works with Fennec.”
