lol, that sounds about right.

In my country the delay would probably be around a year plus there's a good chance that we'd have to watch a poorly dubbed German version instead of the original English thus there's really no other option except piracy.

"Only"!?

Seriously?

My personal favourite is still farbrausch's "fr-08 - the product": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1dcrV_7JpXQ

It was amazing "back then" and even today I still think it's highly awesome. All of that in 64k.

Thanks, never heard of this, sounds like quite an interesting idea though!

My main point, however, was that in Firefox it's painfully cumbersome to click past a broken certificate for people who know what they are doing which is a major usability issue for me (I have lots of broken certificates everywhere, mostly expired ones). Making your product more annoying for "expert" users to use means that they are also less likely to recommend it (personally I wouldn't know whether I can recommend current versions of Firefox because I haven't used one in ages, due to the SSL stuff).

Also, on a related note, it's not like a valid SSL certificate means a lot these days anyway. But that's an altogether different issue, I guess.

Yet the only thing they really need to copy to get me to come back and try Firefox again is to replace the 13-click procedure for broken SSL certificates with a simple pop-up window. As it used to be.

7:30 in Switzerland. Talk about crazy...

For some reason it seems you still think of politicians as rational beings. Once you get over that, a whole lot of things will suddenly start making sense...
