Mozilla will launch Firefox for Microsoft's Windows 8 "Modern" user interface in mid-December, more than a year after the operating system's launch, according to the open-source developer's planning documents.
Called the "Preview Release," the touch-ready browser will be packaged with Firefox 26 for the Windows desktop. Firefox 26 is slated to ship Dec. 10.
Work on the browser -- a so-called "Metro-ized" version of Firefox -- will continue up until release, Mozilla said in
notes from a planning meeting Wednesday published on its website.
