General Discussion

I'm debating switching the Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition installer over to a live installer. It's multilingual and able to download the appropriate locale of Firefox based on installer language and get the appropriate files out for use. The launcher picks the appropriate supported language to show in as well based on installed locale of the ones we support for the launcher (or English if in a locale Firefox supports but the launcher doesn't) for messages like "Firefox is already running...", etc.

Hello,

I would like distribute to several internal users a zipped bundle containing a locked down version of portable Firefox. Are there any copyright or licensing concerns with PortableApps or Mozilla if I were to do so? I'm especially concerned over the "unaltered binary installer" clause on this site's copyright statement and and Mozilla's distribution policy from "http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/distribution-policy.html".

Just wanted to point out that the front page is displaying the older Firefox and Thunderbird logos.

Hello all!

FYI my philosophy is that the dumbest question is the one that isn't asked, so you've all been warned! LOL!

Seriously though, I haven't spotted any information here with regards to installing PA on other devices such as an SD/CF card etc. Are there any instructions available or did I miss something when I was searching around?

Cheers,
Eros

When choosing 'Block sites from setting any data' in chrome
version 13.0.782.107, 13.0.782.109 Beta, and 14.0.835.18 Dev
all let cookies slip through.

Identical settings in version 12.0.742.122 blocks fine.

Depressing development.
I hope so soo much I don't have to switch back to firefox. :/

Is it legal to sell the portableapps.com platform on ebay?
Someone posted it on IRC and I thought I ask here.
I think it is legal as long as you find someone dumb enough to pay for something that is free

Obviously what I'm about to suggest could be handled by a separate app and perhaps that's the way to go ultimately... but in my mind this should be integrated into or at least an addon for the portableapps.com platform itself.

So what am I talking about? Well... snapshots combined with an auto-revert feature. A way to revert any external changes to the files on the portable drive automatically.

Why?
