Firefox 1.1 is scraped in favour of Firefox 1.5

News from http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/roadmap.html revealed that the Mozilla Development team is going to scrap out Mozilla Firefox 1.1 release in August in favor of Mozilla Firefox 1.5.

The new Mozilla Firefox will feature new Gecko engine, ongoing HIG compliance, sw/update and extension manager improvements.

Quote from the site :

We are planning for a Firefox 2.0 and 3.0, but will divide the planned work over (at this point) three major Milestones, 1.5 (September 2005), 2.0 (unscheduled) and 3.0 (unscheduled). All major development work will be done on the Mozilla trunk, and these releases will coincide with Gecko version revs.

According to the roadmap, Mozilla Firefox 1.5 (Deer Park) is scheduled to be released on September 2005
