Nice to know. Guess FF 17 will be out next week?

Firefox 17 will also be the new ESR release.

This all sounds very positive from Mozilla so will look forward to Firefox 17

Im more worried about having to wait for 20 more Beta before Firefox 17 final is out

Firefox 15 is almost cooked, then 7 or 8 more Beta for Firefox 16, then another 7 or 8 Beta for Firefox 17

Yes, and when 17 comes out people will try it for a few days then hear on the net about "new Firefox 20 features" AND THIS CYCLE CONTINUES ENDLESSLY until someone from 2149 with a time machine accidentally leaves a copy of Firefox 431 back in 2034 but it doesn't work because Windows 981 hasn't been invented yet and no one knows how to make a 999 ZiloByte ram machine anyway and we're back to the endless anticipation/upgrade cycle until the earth gets hit by giant asteroids in 2351 leaving no survivors.
