Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030529

Shouldnt the about dialog say that is is release candidate 1 ?
Will be confusing if 1.4 final is out and has the same version tag (except build id)

1.Go to Help
2.Click on About Mozilla

window says:
Mozilla 1.4

Expected Results:  
show window with:
Mozilla 1.4rc1

[Matthias Versen [:Matti]]

my current UA string is :
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; de-DE; rv:1.5a) Gecko/20030528

But i don't use 1.5a, I use a nightly between 1.4(b) and 1.5.
There will be no new RC1 Release with a changed UA string -> wontfix

For me, in build 2003052908 running under WinXP, the "About Mozilla" window
shows "Mozilla 1.0.2"!

Erm. Never mind the above comment. I had edited the user-agent string to pacify
a site that required a Netscape user-agent...

Really cool that this was a WONTFIX, now the 1.4 RC 2 "Help, About" text still
says "1.4".
