Firefox 4 Delayed Until Early 2011


The next major version of Firefox, originally slated for late 2010, has been delayed until early 2011.
The change was announced by Firefox director Mike Beltzner. “Completing this work (on Firefox 4) is taking longer than initial estimates indicated as we track down regressions and sources of instability. As part of our commitment to beta users, we will not ship software before it is ready,” he wrote on the mozilla.dev.planning mailing list.
The Firefox 4 Beta Wiki has also been updated with a new release schedule.
Firefox 4 brings several major improvements, including a redesign of the user interface, HTML5 support, multi-touch functionality [mashable link], hardware-accelerated HD video, improved support for add-ons through Jetpack and many others.
