Mozilla, a company in charge of developing and distributing Firefox browser, has indefinitely postponed the development of the Metro version to Windows 8. The aforementioned version would be a browser integration with the Windows 8 look.
The decision was announced by a post by Johnathan Nightingale, vice president of the Firefox team, on Mozilla's official blog.
This announcement comes a few days after the release of Firefox 28, which should have version debuted the product provided stable. The main reason given by Nightingale is the lack of testers users : less than 1,000 per day.
As explained on the blog, the decision was made earlier this week. Following the official reasoning does not want to deliver to the user a version of the browser that can hide many failures. It also suggests that they prefer to spend their effort in areas where they can reach more people.
So you find Mozilla Firefox for Windows 8 modern UI interface has aroused great interest. That must be true, because otherwise no one would say, but I fear Mozilla has something to do: it takes two years of development, offering projects that have not finished the work. I remember I wanted to take the final test portion (February Beta version) and did not get it to start when previous versions had worked with some decency.
