Firefox developer feels like throwing in the towel

An exasperated Connor says he's "on the verge of just walking away indefinitely" from the project because of its "glacial pace of development."

The problem, says Connor is that there are only half a dozen folk who review the product and they're not active enough right now. At least, not as active as him, he suggests.

He opines the fact that a community of hackers hasn't been built up around the browser. And, though he says he may be wrong - since he doesn't actually work for Mozilla - he reckons Firefox 2.0 is unlikely to be anywhere near viable before "late 2006".

Here's his posting: http://www.steelgryphon.com/blog/.

We're awaiting a response from Mozilla. µ
