We haven't forgotten Linux in Firefox 3: Mozilla
Submitted by srlinuxx on Thu, 12/13/2007 - 18:05.
Mozilla Foundation, the organization behind the Firefox web browser, has defended itself against claims from sections of the Linux community that it has ignored Linux in the development of Firefox 3, the next generation of the browser. Mozilla's chief interface designer says Linux is very much included in the development project.
Contrary to what I said in a previous review of Firefox 3 Beta 1, the user interface of the new version of the browser will indeed look different.
Alex Faaborg, Mozilla’s User Experience Designer, says the Firefox design team is working on improvements to the interface – most of which will be incorporated into the next releases (Beta 2 due out soon).
"While most of the UI changes did not make it into Beta 1, users of the final release will likely know that they are not running the previous version," Mr Faaborg told iTWire.

Firefox 3 on Linux
This is absolutely true. While they did almost kill firefox on Linux when they release firefox2, I am absolutely loving my firefox3 daily cvs builds. Gnome integration is very good in the latest firefox 3 builds.
