One of the most promising projects of Mozilla Labs has been updated - Firefox Sync (formerly Weave)

Let me remind you that Weave is a solution from Mozilla, designed to combine your tabs, bookmarks, browser history, passwords and even settings on various platforms. This includes Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and mobile platforms that Sly Fox sent his course to (while a version for Fennec and an experimental client for iPhone are available).

One of the key features of this solution, which sets Weave apart from 3rd-party solutions from other developers (Xmarks, for example), is the ability to raise your own synchronization server on a free API. Read more about innovations - under habrakatom.

The list of changes is not shocking (bugfixes, new cryptographic wrapper, enhanced functionality, improvements in compatibility between platforms and with the fifth alpha), but you can still note one extremely interesting detail - rebranding. Now Weave is Firefox Sync, which can only mean one thing - the project will soon be released from the walls of the lab and integrated into the standard browser functionality, but this is good news.

I hope that we will see all this in the coming 3.7.
