In response to a “particularly troublesome bug” in the new JavaScript engine in Firefox 3.1, Mozilla has announced that they are adding another beta to the release schedule. This will delay the final release until at least the 2nd quarter and possibly even result in the renaming of the release from 3.1 to 3.5.

"A fourth beta will follow approximately six weeks after, as a vehicle for more testing of [the] TraceMonkey [JavaScript engine], video, Places and other eagerly-awaited improvements, as well as feedback from Beta 3," [Mozilla VP of Engineering Mike] Shaver said in a message on a company forum .
