Firefox 3.5 RC (Release Candidate) 1 Is Almost Here
Even Mozilla has modified the initial date when the first release candidate of Firefox 3.5 will be available for Internet public (now the official release date for Firefox 3.5 RC 1 is June 10th), you can have a preview of what can do the RC version of the browser. According to a recent Lifehacker post, by downloading and installing the latest beta version of Firefox 3.5 (Firefox 3.5 beta 4), you will have the possibility to upgrade the browser to the Preview release, which is not the release candidate, but it includes more refinements than any beta.
John Slater stated on Mozilla project official blog that Firefox 3.5 will be the fastest version of the browser, as compared with the previous ones:”Firefox 3.5 will be here soon, and it’s shaping up to be by far the fastest Firefox yet: more than twice as fast as Firefox 3 and 10 times as fast as Firefox 2.”
In order to test the Firefox release candidate preview, after a successful installation of Firefox 3.5 beta 4 browser, just go to the Help menu and use the Check for Updates menu. Once again, the preview does not have all the features of the release candidate.
Stay tuned for the long waited official release of Firefox 3.5 RC 1: the release candidate will be available for free download from the Mozilla website, as well as Downloadtube.com on June 10th.
