After Firefox 3.6 ships in January, the Firefox team has identified the following features to ship in Firefox in 2010 (not a comprehensive list, but the major user-facing focus points):

  • Multi-process plugins (Flash crashes/instability don't bring down the browser)
  • Transition to jetpack extensions
  • New UI stuff: new Windows menu structure, platform integration
  • Weave
  • Updater v2.0: updates which don't interrupt the user
  • More responsive UI (async I/O)
  • Better startup time
  • Integrated Developer Tools

There are two major release vehicles available for these features: a stability release in Q1, and a major feature release which will preview in June/July and ship later in the year.

In order that out of process plugins can get widespread testing while not disrupting our ability to ship regular security updates, a special project branch will track mozilla-1.9.2: weekly betas with multi-process plugins will allow for quick iteration and widespread testing.
