-{ Quote: "Mozilla has officially announced the availability of the second Firefox 3.1 alpha. This release includes support for the highly-anticipated HTML 5 "video" element and a handful of other features that move the browser forward.

The latest alpha—codenamed Shiretoko—includes support for the new video element, one of the most highly-anticipated features of HTML 5. We first looked at the video element in Firefox last year when a developer produced a preliminary implementation. At the time, the feature was highly experimental and could only be tested in a specially-patched build. The feature didn't make into the main tree in time for Firefox 3, but now it's a high priority feature for the 3.1 release. " }-
