Finally after a lot of expectation and three release candidates (all were published within less that two weeks) Mozilla announced that the the final version for Firefox 3.5 will be available to the public on the morning of Tuesday, June 30.

Seems that development team is running against the clock, considering that on June 24 they’ve released the RC3 version for Firefox 3.5 and originally the announcement about the final version stated that “end of June” will be the date. Well they sure are keeping the promise, taking the last day of the month to release it.

Since RC1, the two other versions that were public basically focused in bug fixing, so if you installed were using any of these versions you shouldn’t expect greatest differences with the final one.

The second most used browser has released the Release Candidate version for the upcoming Firefox 3.5. If you are wondering what kind of versions are the “release candidates”, those represents the first and most acceptable beta release that are very stable and with no big issues involved; but it doesn’t mean that this version will be the exact one used as a final version. This one is the seventh milestone (meaning build) that the development team prepared for Firefox 3.5.

Some of the improvements that Firefox 3.5 will include that appear in this RC1:

Based in Gecko 1.9.1 rendering platform.
Support for HTML 5, JavaScript query selectors, SVG transforms and others.
Improved performance with TraceMonkey JavaScript engine.
Private Browsing Mode for private data management.
Support native JSON and web worker threads.
Providing Location Aware Browsing to enhance web sites to display information according your geographical location.

You can download Firefox 3.5 RC1 from this link.

Consider that installing this version will overwrite your previous version of Firefox, your bookmarks and browsing history will be maintain, but do not expect that all your add-ons working properly.

Download it, enjoy it and give them your feedback!
