Light at the end of the tunnel
30 October 2007
A few weeks ago in a gecko meeting I mentioned that I felt like we were in the “trough of despair”. That’s the part of every software project where you’ve had to scale back your open-ended dreams to match the reality of shipping in your lifetime - but the bug list looks so long you have no idea how to get through it.
Well - thanks to some very hard work we’ve gotten ourselves down to 13 total beta 1 blocker bugs - that’s 6 platform and 7 Firefox bugs. That means we really are closing in on beta1. Go team!
I’ll have more thoughts about what should you expect out of Beta1, Firefox3 and why are we doing what we are doing in the coming weeks.

Smaller change sets, quicker releases please!!
It’s much easier to see where firefox is heading if we are involved and can see the incremental changes!
Thanks

You can see where we are going by getting on our nightly builds: ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/nightly/latest-trunk - generally usable for everyday stuff and gives you a daily snapshot of where we are…
