Mozilla Won’t Fix 80% of Firefox 3.0’s Bugs

The New York Times is running a story that says 80% of Firefox 3.0’s bugs will not be fixed before the final version is released next year.

"We have 700 bugs currently marked as blockers," the notes read. "That's too many. We're asking [requiring] component owners to set priorities on blockers, as a first pass of what bugs should be Beta 2 blockers. You want it to be about 10% of blockers, or what you can get done in four weeks."

That's why it is in Alpha, and then Beta. Gotta work out the links first. Hopefully they will reign in the bugs a bit more than what some say.
