I hope to put out 1.7a1 today or tomorrow.
In theory our plan is for 1.7 to support Firefox 4.0 and 4.1. However,
we will continue to use FF 3.6 until Firefox 4.1 is well underway.
In addition I may continue some work on FF 3.6 or a fork of FF 3.6 or
4.0. Mozilla has removed some features from Firefox 4.0 that I use in
developing new Firebug features and I have not been successful in
finding a way to collaborate with them. I am also looking into WebKit/
V8 as a platform for this work. Realistically I won't be able to
pursue this until the main work of 1.7 is complete.
