Mozilla ends support for Firefox 1.5
By Martin English | April 24, 2007
Just six months after Firefox 2.0 was released, Mozilla is ending support for Firefox 1.5. And you thought Microsoft was short shrifting customers by phasing out Windows XP by the end of this year. At least Microsoft offer support and updates for about 5 years.
April 24th is the last day Firefox 1.5 will be officially supported. The developers have moved to a consumer-oriented model with a short product lifespan and regular browser upgrades. While this isn’t great for corporate users who are slow to implement updates, it’s worked pretty well in terms of keeping Firefox on the cutting edge.
About 40% of Firefox users are still running version 1.5.0.x.
