...at least not if one of the senior officials has his way:
QUOTE
A feature request entered into Mozilla's bug system (feature requests aren't bugs in any traditional sense, but Mozilla uses one system for managing everything) calls for the removal of the version number from Firefox's "About" dialog. Instead, the intent is to make the About box do two things; show the product name and links to legal information, as it already does, and show how long ago Firefox checked that it was up-to-date, with some kind of provision to check right now. There won't be a version number—just an indicator of whether the browser is up-to-date or not.

Stupidest idea yet. It would make troubleshooting a real mess. Let's hope that the general outcry from both within and without Mozilla puts the kibosh on that one!
