Initially, Firefox 2.0 was planned to be released on August 15, but this was not possible. The main reason - too many bugs that had to be corrected at the last moment.
According to the
new schedule , the official release of Firefox 2.0 is scheduled for October 25, 2006. The closest event in the calendar is the release of Firefox 2 Beta 2, scheduled for August 24. After that, three release candidates will be released: September 20, October 3 and October 12.
The “freezing” of the second beta code began today at 12.00 Moscow time. It will last until August 22, after which the finished distribution will be released.
