Hello everyone, I'm pleased to announce that after a short pause, we are rebooting the Firefox for iOS release schedule.
You can find the adjusted schedule at https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox_for_iOS_Train_Schedule We will be following our regular process where we have 6 weeks of engineering work, 4 weeks for stabilization/qa/l10n and then a 3 week window to get through App Store review and the actual release. In reality this means that we will ship a new version roughly every 6 weeks. Our next major release will be v6.0. It should be feature complete on November 1st and ship mid December. This will not be a release with a lot of new user facing features. Instead we have been focusing mostly on stability. • Code migration to Swift 2.3 / Xcode 8 • Remove iOS 8 Support • Stabilization & Regressions • Bring back Session Restore • Integrate with third-party mail clients • Sync Quality Improvements Full bug list at https://mzl.la/2e40qBo - Please note that some of this work was completed in the past and will not ship until a later release. For example the iPad Top Tabs work landed as part of the 6.0 release but behind a disabled feature flag. We welcome all feedback, suggestions and contributions. S.
