Firefox 3 final in June


A Computer World write up states Mozilla will release the final beta of Firefox 3.0 shortly and that it expects to deliver the finished browser in June.

"That will be the last beta for Firefox 3.0," said Mike Schroepfer, Mozilla's vice president, engineering.

Release Candidate 1 should be ready sometime in early May, said Schroepfer, assuming all goes well. In all, Mozilla will likely ship three Release Candidates before the finished version of Firefox 3 can be downloaded.

In the US, Firefox is the second most-popular browser with 17.27 percent of web traffic traceable back to the open-source browser. Firefox has been downloaded 500-million times.
