> Firefox 5 was all about bug stomping and the stillborn channel switcher, Firefox 6 will see the addition of lots of HTML5 and CSS3 features and more privacy controls, and Firefox 7 — at long last — will focus on memory management and performance increases.

This kind of summary is potentially misleading. It isn't like there is a preplanned 'theme' for each release, or that everybody focuses on one thing each time then switches to something else.

Mozilla constantly focuses on several things at once. So there are memory improvements in FF5 and FF6, not just FF7. It isn't as if until FF7 no one cared about memory, which the summary almost implies. (But, it's possible the memory improvements in FF7 are turning out to be bigger than previous ones.)

I realize the article was just doing a quick summary and there's nothing wrong with that. Just wanted to post this comment to avoid possible misunderstandings.
