Also, we put new features and implementation of new Web APIs into the hands of developers more quickly,” Ritu Kothari, Firefox release management team, and Yan Or, Product Integrity team for Firefox, says.įirefox 70 is the next major release for the browser, which is expected to launch on October 22. With four-week cycles, we can be more agile and ship features faster, while applying the same rigor and due diligence needed for a high-quality and stable release. “Shorter release cycles provide greater flexibility to support product planning and priority changes due to business or market requirements. In other words, the next ESR will land in June 2020, and the next in June 2021, and so on. This means new updates will continue to arrive every 12 months as normal.
Looking at Firefox ESR (Extended Support Release for enterprise users), Mozilla says now changes to the release schedule will be made. However, it will not happen until the first quarter of 2020, which is when the new schedule goes live. Of course, this means new Firefox versions will be available on a monthly basis. Previously, new Firefox releases were sent out every six weeks. In an announcement, the company says it will now roll out new updates every four weeks. Mozilla has committed to a more frequent release schedule for its Firefox web browser.
