Gran Paradiso Alpha 1 is an early developer milestone for the next major version of Firefox that is being built on top of the next generation of Mozilla's layout engine, Gecko 1.9. Gran Paradiso Alpha 1 is being made available for testing purposes only, and is intended for web application developers and our testing community. Current users of Mozilla Firefox should not use Gran Paradiso Alpha 1.

Release notes: http://www.mozilla.org/projects/firefox/3.0a1/releasenotes/
Download: http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.or...20Alpha%201.exe


Edit: Added warning/note to topic description and post, updated download link to use main mirror distribution server.

Update:

Firefox v3.0 Alpha 2 Pre

Firefox 3 is focused on improved memory handling, performance, and stability, improved XUL, and new core components such as application data stored in SQLite. Firefox 3 could break a few existing extensions and applications built on top of Firefox, and it will definitely include new optimizations if you like to build on the popular browser. Firefox 3 should have additional JavaScript and SVG features if you're into that sort of thing.

Firefox is a free, open-source web browser for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X and is based on the Mozilla codebase. It is small, fast and easy to use, and offers many advantages over Internet Explorer, such as the ability to block pop-up windows.

Portable Firefox 3.0 Alpha 1 is also out
http://www.public.iastate.edu/~wagner84/Po...irefox3.0a1.zip

For testing purposes, I'd recommend you guys to download portable version instead since you don't have to install it, so that the existing 2.0 is not affected.

Use nightly tester tools to make your extensions compatible

If your 2.0 is not stable, you can't expect a alpha release to be more stable than a supposedly stable release

there aren't much difference, and it's recommended not to try (as Mr. Shockwave said), it's Alpha and might contains some error...anyway, it's for testing purposes...i'm using it now, one of i can notice, i can't view my Yahoo Mail with new Yahoo new interface, and most of existing extension/themes won't run...

I'd usually skip the Alpha and only pay attention when it comes to Beta stage. Alpha is too early for me to try
