Earlier this year, Mozilla announced its plans to release a version of its Firefox web browser that would be made specifically for the Metro UI in Windows 8. It been several weeks since there has been any development updates on Firefox for Windows 8 Metro, but one of the programmers on the project, Brian Bondy, has now offered up a new development update.

In a post on his blog
, Bondy states:


We determined that sharing the same Firefox profile in both Desktop and Metro is out of scope for the initial version, so instead we plan to sync the settings between 2 profiles using Firefox Sync augmented with some key local events to force a sync right away by using Windows Messages, events, and the registry.
