During the weekly meeting
During the weekly meeting today, developers said a number of stubborn Javascript problems and other issues remain in the code, prompting the decision to go for a fourth beta. Others suggested that a possible version number change (Firefox 3.5) may be in order to reflect the scope (and time investment) of the update.buy thesisBeta 3 was originally expected to be released in early January. It should now be available within a week or so. A possible date for beta 4 was not given.Essay

Mozilla releases the latest beta in their upcoming 3.1 version (soon to be renamed 3.5) of Firefox,(custom assignment) which is expected in Mid-April for general distribution. On this day (Friday), they seek assistance from users of desktop Linux operating systems, especially as they iron out the remaining video playback issues.(custom coursework) They have proclaimed it to be Test Day, and you can participate by jumping into chat and running a test script or two.Dissertation Writing
