As most of you have probably already seen, Firefox 0.9 has been released. Among the updates pertinent to Fedora are newly native (or native-ish) menus (they look/feel great). Perhaps this is already underway, but how can we help get Firefox 0.9 out for Fedora? According to the original announcement [1] the Firefox/Thunderbird packages have been "heavily patched and polished to integrate nicely into the Preferred Applications framework of FC2". So, I presume the new release isn't trivial.

I built a fedora 9 package earlier today by taking the spec file from dag's firefox package and removing a few patches. It seems to work fine for me.
