Hot on the heels of a “semi-native” SeaMonkey build, a new build of Firefox has popped on on BeBits featuring “partial native-mode support”. While the native mode patches (courtesy of Sergei “fyysik” Dolgov) don’t magically turn Firefox into a true native BeOS app, they do help it behave much more like one – Firefox can now handle drag-n-dropped files, open links in EMail, act as the default app for HTML files, etc. A full description of the changes has been posted on BeZilla.org.

Speaking of the BeZilla.org site, there have been some interesting recent developments there as well. Jorge “koki” Mare has outlined the recent / upcoming changes in a post on the BeZilla Blog. The site now sports a spiffy, more Mozilla.org-esque theme, and koki is working on a BeZilla.org blog for developers (to replace the current LiveJournal).
