In a previous post I mentioned how I have now moved on to Firefox 3 trunk builds just because I like to use the bleeding edge of web browsers. According to Mozilla’s latest meeting notes we may be seeing the release of Firefox 3 Alpha 1 as soon as the end of November (around the 28th or 29th).
By that time the latest reflow will be merged with the trunk and we will have an Acid 2 compliant browser! Thanks to natmaster for pointing that out in my last post regarding Firefox 3. He also provided a download link for those people who wanted to try out the latest reflow build to see it pass the Acid 2 test. At this point there are a few bugs on the reflow branch that need to be fixed before it can be merged with the trunk but hopefully it won’t be too much longer. 
While it is exciting to see another milestone for Firefox coming up so quick after Firefox 2 was released, I have my doubts that they will be able to push an Alpha build out by the end of November. I would expect to see it more towards the middle/end of December and if the release date changes I will update our calendar accordingly. Either way I’ll continue testing the pre-Alpha version and when I see the reflow build merge with the trunk I’ll be sure to let everyone know.
