Mozilla Planning Firefox Metro For Windows 8 On December 10

Posted by Soulskill on from the versions-2-3-and-4-scheduled-for-december-11 dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Mozilla is finally getting close to releasing a Metro version of its Firefox browser that will run on Windows RT as well as the tablet-side of Windows 8. The touch flavor of the app will arrive on December 10 along with Firefox 26. That's assuming, of course, that there won't be more delays. Given what we've seen so far, we wouldn't be surprised to see a final Metro version arrive in 2014."

    Unless it's just a static JPG inside of a program window that says "WHY ARE YOU USING WINDOWS 8, IDIOT?!" then why bother? It's enabling/encouraging Microsoft. It's right up there with Google releasing a new maps app for iOS5 right when people were getting mad.

    Not to mention a Linux version of it.
