There is a new web interface to Talkback (instructions) that lets you get stack traces from Talkback reports you send. Firefox nightlies on Linux include Talkback. Firefox nightlies on Windows don't include Talkback yet, so test crashes on Windows with Seamonkey nightlies instead.

MOZILLA_1_7_BRANCH has been created, but there are no branch builds yet. Firefox 0.9 and 1.0 will be based on the Mozilla 1.7 branch.
