Just a few moments ago, December 15, Mozilla officially announced the release of the Firefox 43.0 web browser with the same set of features reported by us in yesterday’s article, but without the long-anticipated integration of the GTK+ 3 GUI toolkit for Linux kernel-based operating systems.

Mozilla’s Karl Tomlinson explains in a bug report that the GTK3 port of the web browser is not mature enough for production use, so they will have to delay it, again, for the next major version of the web browser, Mozilla Firefox 44.0, due for release on January 26, 2016.
