“It’s looking increasingly unlikely that Mozilla will
ship Firefox 4 this month. On Thursday, Christian Legnitto, who
oversees Firefox releases, said that Beta 12 would probably not
ship for several days.

“”The bugs blocking beta 12 are expected to be fixed in the next
day or so,” Legnitto said yesterday in a message to a Firefox
development mailing list . “At that point, we will freeze nightlies
and then create the beta build when we are confident of
quality.”

“As of Friday, five bugs remain on what Mozilla calls its “hard”
blocker list, those bugs that must be fixed before it deems Beta 12
good to go.”
