[h=3]Don't look now, but 64-bit Firefox nightlies are set to return.[/h] Mozilla in November made the decision to
pull the plug on 64-bit Firefox for Windows, disabling 64-bit nightlies because of a lack of resources required to make it worthwhile. What Mozilla didn't anticipate was that there would be "significant negative feedback" from the online community, and because of that, the open source browser maker said it's
willing to make a compromise.
Developer Benjamin Smedberg, the one who first proposed ceasing 64-bit Firefox development, said Mozilla still doesn't have the resources to reverse course, but the Release Engineering team does.
"After reviewing that feedback, and consulting with Release Engineering, I believe that we can keep a set of users happy by making a modification to the original plan," Smedberg said in a blog post.
