All systems are go for the market launch of Firefox 3 for Windows and Linux but Mozilla plans another minor release candidate for the Mac OSX version due to plug-in hiccups introduced by Apple’s 10.5.3 update.
That’s the word from Mozilla’s Firefox group, which held today what may be final pre-release meeting for the much anticipated Firefox 3. The RC3 for Mac OSX 3 is being built and the update is expected to go live tomorrow, according to Mozilla. It does not appear likely that the glitch will hold up the mid month launch of Firefox 3. The open source product is the second leading web browser on the market next to Microsoft’s Internet Explorer with almost 18 percent market share
Last week, the Wall Street Journal’s Walt Mossberg said Firefox 3 has recaptured the performance title and gave the browser a solid review.
