The seventh Beta development milestone of the next iteration of Firefox will be made available for download soon.
It’s been quite a wait for Firefox 4.0 Beta 7, a release initially planned for mid-September 2010, but as early adopters following the development process closely, the delay was more than necessary.
Firefox 4.0 Beta 6 as well as pre-Beta 7 nightly builds weren’t exactly at the top of their game as far as stability and reliability was concerned, with testers reporting a variety of glitches, including severe crashes.
On November 2nd, 2010, Mozilla noted that a single blocker for Firefox 4.0 Beta 7 had remained unfixed. Earlier today there were no more bugs severe enough from preventing Firefox 4.0 to graduate to Beta 7 stage.
It’s highly likely that the open source browser vendor has already moved on to building Firefox 4.0 Beta 7 Builds, although none are actually shared with testers at this point in time, except the nightly releases already available.
