In a rare move for software developers these days, Ben Goodger, announced that the release of Firefox 1.1 would be delayed until June of 2005:
… the slippage from March is not due to my move to Google, it is due to us needing to ensure the 1.1 release is of identical quality and scope as the 1.0 release - that means a period of testing, the localization system needs to be brought back online, etc. These things are done by more people than just myself, so quit with the wacky speculation.
In this world of Microsoft releasing products that are garbage in 1.0, crap in 2.0, and just barely good in 2.0 SP3 it’s refreshing that a software firm is become a success story by releasing incredibly stable software.
