Firefox 3:Gecko 1.9 Alpha 1
Gecko 1.9 Alpha 1 introduces several new features which can be tested by using Gran Paradiso Alpha 1:
- Cairo is now being used as the default graphics library, affecting all graphic and text rendering

- Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows ME are no longer supported platforms
- OS X 10.2 is no longer supported, and OS X 10.3.9 or higher is recommended
- Moving DOM nodes between documents now requires a call to importNode or adoptNode as per the DOM specification.
