FireFox 3 is in Beta
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0b1/releasenotes/

To the UBB team, is it worth running 7.3 on the FireFox beta, or wait until the final FireFox is released?

Wouldn't hurt, I wouldn't expect a site to work differently in the newer browser, as long as the site html is valid.

I haven't even looked at it, if you have FF3 installed, feel free to bash my 7.3 alpha board (note that the bookmarks dropdown is simply a mod i'm playing with, everything else is the latest 7.3 alpha)...

I don't forsee any problems though.

Just going slightly off topic - Is Firefox V3 and Minefield V3 the same thing? Wasn't Minefield some kind of Firefox beta or is it an ongoing project linked to Firefox?

Wow, what a poor name choice for a piece of software.
