Mozilla revealed its early plans for Firefox 4 in a presentation by Mike Beltzner, director of Firefox. He suggested that the public revelation of those plans would help the organization gather feedback during construction of the browser, which aims to be fast, with a high degree of user control, and enable Web technologies such as HTML5. In addition, the new Firefox version will include a more streamlined default theme, performance optimizations and faster navigation. Firefox occupies second place in the browser wars, according to some analytics firms, lagging behind Internet Explorer but ahead of competitors such as Safari and Chrome.
Mozilla has begun early work on Firefox 4, according to an organization executive who presented the upcoming browser version’s product plan May 10.
“Usually software producers don’t present these sorts of plans in public until they’re finalized, but Mozilla is a little different,” Mike Beltzner, Mozilla’s director of Firefox, wrote in a May 10 posting on his personal blog. “We work in the open, socializing our plans early and often to gather feedback and build excitement in our worldwide community.”
