Firefox 3 is one step closer to release after Mozilla distributed the first release candidate of its latest browser. It was made available to around 1.2million testers with no date yet on public release.

On Mozilla’s developer blog they comment on this being the final release if no bugs are found and if so more RCs to follow. Here is hoping it is clean!

If you can’t wait then download RC1 here.

[Update] You can now download the RC via the software update in Firefox.

For all those that have been watching the development of Firefox 3, you would be happy to know the latest beta is now available for download HERE.

Firefox 3 Beta 5 includes more than 750 changes from the previous beta, improving stability and web compatibility, providing platform and user interface enhancements, and resulting in the fastest Firefox ever. Many of these improvements were based on community feedback from the previous beta.

It is also faster with improved connection parallelism. Which allows for increased simultaneous connections by default for those that have not already ‘fixed’ this.

The final release of Firefox 3 is due in June.
