Mozilla offers to change the schedule of exit browsers
As you know, the Mozilla Foundation releases new versions of its Firefox browser every six weeks. This circumstance at the end of July caused some tension between some large players in the corporate market and Mozilla, which decided to stop supporting the rapidly aging fourth version of the browser in favor of the effectiveness of developing new versions. At the same time, the fund management actually expressed itself in the sense that the corporate market is not interesting for them and long-term browser support for corporations such as IBM should become a problem for the corporations themselves.
Now the Mozilla Foundation has revised its plans. Management has offered to release certain versions of Firefox as part of the Extended Support Release (ESR) every thirty weeks, which is five times slower than the usual “user-defined” browsers and that should satisfy the basic wishes of the corporate market that relates the release schedule of its software to the Firefox release schedule. The released ESR versions of Firefox will be supported by the foundation for another 42 weeks.
