Here is a brief update on the Firefox web browser project done by Bitwise GmbH.
You can follow the status here: https://github.com/bitwiseworks/mozilla-os2
While David Yeo and other people have done a very good job of keeping Firefox and Thunderbird and other Mozilla updated, but deep going maintance of Mozilla products for eCS has been running behind for years. Thats why so much time is now needed to get the code in good shape again!
Its expected around the end of August the first Firefox ESR 17 builds will be released for public beta. With so called IPC support. With the code getting so much updates it will be easier to compile newer builds of Firefox.
These updates should also greatly improve the stability of the Firefox.
