<li class="bbli">
  Fixed: <ul>
    <li>
      Heyo, Jabra & Logitech C920 webcam users. We fixed those pesky WebRTC bugs causing frequency distortions. Buh-bye, squeaky voice!
    </li>
    <li>
      Improved step debugging on last line of functions
    </li>
  </ul>
</li>

<li class="bbli">
  Changed: <ul>
    <li>
      So long to support for 10.6, 10.7 and 10.8. Now we can focus on where most Mac users are: 10.9. Don&#8217;t forget to upgrade!
    </li>
    <li>
      After version 48, SSE2 CPU extensions are going to be required on Windows
    </li>
    <li>
      Au revoir to Windows Remote Access Service modem Autodial
    </li>
  </ul>
</li>

<li class="bbli">
  Developer: <ul>
    <li>
      WebExtensions support is now considered as stable
    </li>
    <li>
      Want to move absolute & fixed positioned elements? (Who doesn&#8217;t, right?) Now you can with our geometry editor.
    </li>
    <li>
      The memory tool now has a tree map view for your debugging pleasure. It&#8217;s a little bit of &#8220;boo&#8221; and a whole lot of &#8220;ya.&#8221;
    </li>
    <li>
      We&#8217;re putting the spotlight on the background. Now you can debug WebExtensions background content scripts and background pages
    </li>
    <li>
      Content Security Policy (CSP) is now enforced for WebExtensions. (Who&#8217;s down with CSP?)
    </li>
    <li>
      Old and busted: Error Console. New hotness: Browser Console for your debugging pleasure.
    </li>
    <li>
      Add-on development just got easier because you can reload them from about:debugging — because we&#8217;re all about debugging.
    </li>
    <li>
      This theme is hot, hot, hot! Say hi to the Firebug theme for Developer Tools.
    </li>
    <li>
      Expand network requests from the console panel to view request details in line, so you can see things in context
    </li>
    <li>
      Workers can now use the Web Crypto API
    </li>
  </ul>
</li>
