Firefox 4 Delayed Until 2011, Google Chrome Marches On

The Mozilla people commented on the delays:

“Based on the delays in completing the feature complete Beta 7 milestone against which our Add-on developers and third-party software developers can develop, as well as considering the amount of work remaining to prepare Firefox 4 for final release, we have revised our beta and release candidate schedule”

Meanwhile, Google just released version 7 of Chrome only about 7 weeks after they released Chrome 6, and they will probably have Chrome 8 out by the end of the year. Sure seems like Google’s incremental development model is working better.
