This document also anticipates an interim milestone marker to be released as Firefox 2.0 which will include completed implementations of some of the smaller or less complex items listed below. Many of the larger and more complex items will have their development efforts stretched out over the entire cycle, meaning those items will only appear in the Firefox 3.0 release.

== Firefox and Gecko ==
Firefox 3 will be based on the 1.9 release of the Mozilla platform, often known as "Gecko".  Thus in addition to its own feature items, it will pick up the enhancements to graphics rendering, JavaScript, layout, XUL, etc. anticipated in the [[Gecko 1.9 Roadmap]].  Gecko 1.9 development currently (April 2006) takes place on the trunk, see the [[Global:1.9_Trunk_1.8_Branch_Plan|branch plan]].
