Wot?? Don't we count???

Or is it just that the rest of the Mozilla world is only concerned with the US of A and nothing else??

It really is not very flattering for Mozilla, and rather insulting for Australians...

Why would there be an "Australian" version of Firefox? It's a waste of time and resources to make an Australian version of Firefox when the majority of Australians speak English.

Just use the en-US version of Firefox. (getfirefox.com) It's not that different.


In regards to your "Does Mozilla only care about US of A" comment, no, they don't. They have over 80 languages in which Firefox is supported in.

Mozilla has been supporting several other locales besides en-US ever since Firefox got to version 1.0 as other locals for this browser which existed two years before 1.0 were contribs.

To find the above all link in future look below the green download button on mozilla.org for the Systems & Languages link.

How about Canadians as we have to use either the US or British version ;)

There is still no reference to Australia in the download page. We are not Asian, very Very far from it.

Havn't you heard the song, "We are Australian"???

Not good...

So until there is an invitation to Australian humans, of which we are 20 million plus of, you know what to do with Mozilla...

Well, if you were an Australian, or if you had even been to Australia, you would know that the spelling in the US version is mostly incorrect, the US version of spelling nearly everything is based on a completely different sylibus, now even this programme is telling me that I have spelt sylibus incorrectly.. See what I mean??? The US is not us...

Got it...???

There's nothing to do here. You have no real support request.

We've told you that there is NO Australian version of Firefox since the majority of Australians speak ENGLISH. There's no reason for Mozilla to make an "Australian" version. Just use the en-US or en-GB version.

Also, James is right.

No support question here. Locking thread.

P.S. since you're concerned about the spelling, cor-el linked you to the Australian dictionary.
