Firefox 3.0 Passes Major Milestone

Mozilla has met a major milestone in its march to Firefox 3.0, developers said yesterday, by adding another chunk of the new Places feature to the alpha set for release late next week. Places — a complete revamp of the bookmarks and history functions of the browser — was at one point slated to debut in Firefox 2.0, but was yanked a year ago in the run up to that version’s October 2006 release. Instead, it will debut in Firefox 3.0.

I admit that I am not familiar with “Places”, but a revamp of the bookmarks will be welcomed. I know I am not alone in that thinking.
