The Mozilla blog has an announcement
that Firefox will be moving to 4-week release cycle, starting in 2020.
"Shorter release cycles provide greater flexibility to support
product planning and priority changes due to business or market
requirements. With four-week cycles, we can be more agile and ship features
faster, while applying the same rigor and due diligence needed for a
high-quality and stable release. Also, we put new features and
implementation of new Web APIs into the hands of developers more
quickly.
" The Firefox ESR (Extended Support Release) release cadence
will remain the same.
