Mozilla Branches For 1.0 RC1

Posted by timothy on from the frustrate-your-modem dept.

At the end of last month, the Mozilla Project closed the tree for what will become Mozilla 1.0. Now jkeiser writes "Mozilla has branched for 1.0 RC1, which is the first last step to a final Mozilla 1.0! Mozilla has spent four long years getting the browser standards-compliant, fast and solid. Cross your fingers for a rockin' final release around the corner." Reader whovian points to the just-modified roadmap, too.

    good news to have mozilla 1.0 around the corner.

    I for one am *extremely* grateful to the developers of high-quality applications that I use for work and play. I don't know what I would use if not for mozilla, but I'm sure it would not be as cool. (No replies about konqueror or Opera. Sorry, but they just don't cut it for me.) It's been a long, painful road, with more than a few bug reports, some patches, and more crashes than I can shake a stick at, but I've had fun. And if the ends justify the means, well then 1.0's delay is justified.

    I can't wait to test RC1. Then test RC2, and then RC3, ... then RC895, then RC896.
