Mike Beltzner, the director of Firefox, sent out the call Tuesday afternoon on mozilla.dev.planning: It’s time to lock the trees and land the bugs on beta 3 of the 3.1 version of the browser.
As of 3pm PST, just nine bug landings stood between the development team and handoff of mozilla-1.9.1 to the Release Engineering crew according to the mozilla.dev.planning thread on Google Groups. Beltzner noted in his Twitter stream that he “is hoping we get done with beta 3 code for Firefox tonight” after a day so busy he was wondering if he needed to block off time for bathroom breaks.
We expect that Firefox 3.1 beta will be much faster then 3.0 version, when it will be finally finished!
