That has no relevance to the article at all. They're announcing that Firefox 10, when released, will have extended support.
Also, Firefox 3.6 was released about 2 years ago. The extended support period for Firefox 10 will only be "about a year". That sounds reasonable given the market share decline rate of 3.6 you quoted.
- melling 15y agoHuh? I was connecting the dots. Most corporations won't leave Firefox 3.6 because of the rapid release cycle of Firefox. The extended support is for these companies. Regular consumers will be happy with the silent update every six weeks. If most corporations buy into the new ES version then 3.6 will be practically gone in a matter of months. This is important because FF 10+ is a vast improvement over 3.6, and soon developers will be able to assume FF 10+.
- Aramgutang 15y agoAh, that makes more sense. It was very difficult to infer that meaning from your original post. My apologies.
