Mozilla has laid out its roadmap for Firefox for the next year, touting add-on tweaks and Windows 8 compatibility.

Community manager Asa Dotzler noted that "all browsers do more" these days, stressing that this year Mozilla will focus on making Firefox more stable and responsive.

This year will also see a Windows 8 Metro beta, more web apps, the roll out of a theme refresh and a host of smaller features.

It seems like a number of companies are doing a fair bit of work in preparing for Windows 8 and the different interface it offers. Hopefully that will translate into working products on launch :pig:
