The stable release for Firefox 9 is scheduled for today and it seems like the launch is in straight line, as Mozilla’s FTP location for releases has been updated with a copy of Firefox 9.

As we reported on Saturday, a release candidate for the soon-to-be-officially-launched Firefox 9 was spotted on Mozilla’s servers in the nightly builds section.

The current build, also available for download from Softpedia, has still not received the approval stamp to be pushed to the users through Firefox’s update system. But as Mozilla accustomed us, the latest versions available in the “releases” folder are generally the same builds launched officially.

The highlights for Firefox 9 include type inference, support for Do Not Track queries through JavaScript, improved support for HTML5, MathML and CSS. You can view them explained in this article.
