Firefox 4 to arrive in February

[Student26]

I know that many members of the forum use firefox because of superiority over that browser bundled with windows (IE I think??). Just passing along the news that I read about the release schedule of firefox 4:

Firefox 4 is nearly ready for release, a recent post on Mozilla's developer mailing list suggests.

"Team, we've worked tremendously hard on Firefox 4, and it's time to ship it," wrote Damon Sicore, Mozilla's senior director of platform engineering, on Tuesday. "I'm seeing the same burst of excitement and activity that we've seen in the endgame of every release. We must press hard now."

Currently, about 160 "hard blockers"--or significant bugs--remain in the project, Sicore noted. Typically, it takes about six weeks to reach the release candidate (RC) stage once that number is down to about 100, he added.

I also read somewhere that Mozilla Schedules Firefox 4 Beta 9 For January 13 but we'll see if it is true tomorrow. (source)

Thanks Student26 for news I have switched to Chrome for time being and will surely switch back to Firefox 4 if it gives me all necessary options/tweaks (either built-in or via Add-ons).
