Mozilla Developer News » Blog Archive » Coming Tuesday, June 17th: Firefox 3
http://developer.mozilla.org/devnews/index.php/2008/06/11/coming-tuesday-june-17th-firefox-3/
Цитата: Whenever we’re asked “when is Firefox going to be released” we endeavor to answer to the best of our abilities, but the truth of the matter is that we’ll only ever ship “when it’s ready”. We have a lot of indicators that help us understand when the product is ready for release: feedback from our pre-release milestones, excitement in the community and the press, availability of compatible Add-Ons, and a large active beta community helping us ensure that the release is compatible with all the various sites on the Internet.
After more than 34 months of active development, and with the contributions of thousands, we’re proud to announce that we’re ready. It is our expectation to ship Firefox 3 this upcoming Tuesday, June 17th. |

Цитата: The Mozilla product cycle is actually quite a bit different from those of most software producers. I’ve asked Mike Beltzner, the man driving the Firefox 3 release, to help explain some of the differences and how those differences informed the decision about adding a fourth beta to the schedule.
Цитата: The first and most important thing to state is that we, as a project, are quality driven, not date driven. We use dates to set targets for milestones, and we strive to put out the best milestones possible, but due to the changing nature of the web, we always judge each milestone against our basic criteria of quality, performance and usability. The other factor how we rely on community use and testing of our betas to help us judge their quality. Without our close-to-million strong beta audience, we couldn’t get the usage and testing data required to provide us with the confidence to move into a shippable product.
...
We all want to ship the best browser possible on the fastest timescale, and we meet weekly to evaluate our current product against the potential improvements we could continue to make. When our quality, usability and performance are solid enough to be called Firefox 3 (as judged by everyone involved in making it) we’ll ship it. |
