Fixes bug #22480...from 1999!

"You can now use SVG and MathML inline in HTML5 pages, without XML namespaces."

Thank reason.

Any speculation on a release date?

Oct-Nov. Or if it slips, January. (Taking the past into account, January.)

Although lots of betas will be available in June. The nightlies are surprisingly stable now, so I plan to start using the beta once it's out.

I believe they're aiming for November 2010, but knowing Mozilla, this means June 2011.

Yeah, Firefox 3.6 slipped a whole... two months.
