Mozilla Unveils 'Aggressive' Firefox OS Schedule: Quarterly Feature Releases

An anonymous reader writes "With Firefox OS version 1.0 out the door, Mozilla has decided that it's time to unveil its strategy for new versions. The company is planning to make feature releases available to partners every quarter and push out security updates for the previous two feature releases every six weeks. 'As far as I know, that's the most aggressive mobile OS release strategy out there,' Alex Keybl, Mozilla's Manager of Release Management, said in a statement. 'This sort of alignment across multiple browser products, and now an OS, is unprecedented at the pace we're moving.'"

That's the problem with Firefox though. It gets backed up with user data which fills up RAM and eventually starts to leak out causing odd auto-immune reactions in the host OS. Google solved this problem in Chrome by passing that data through to their servers which have a much greater capacity to hold all your personal data.

Sure now that I've said it, it seems obvious.
