On March 11th the Internet Explorer 9 team signed-off the RTM (Release To Manufacture) build, at this point we can say that the final version is complete (designed, features, bug fixes, integration, etc.) and now, twelve month after the first Platform Preview, thousands of beta testers, over 8,000 of people from the community submitting IE9 issues, over 17,000 pieces of feedbacks, tons of bug fixes, and over 40 million downloads since the first IE9 Beta release. Around the middle of September last year, the first Beta was made available, and again this build was more targeted for developers and enthusiast, but this time the new slimmer and clean user interface was introduced, making it more compelling for a normal user to get their hands on and test the new IE9.įorward 6 months, on February, Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate (IE9 RC) shipped, now with a more completed and stable build –up to here, between the first Beta and Release Candidate, there were over 17,000 pieces of feedback addressed–. At this point there were not back button or address bar, just a plain window frame (a.k.a only browser engine), enough to start testing. About a year ago, the Internet Explorer 9 team released the first Platform Preview of IE9 for developers and enthusiast to try what were new under the hood of IE, along with test drives to check out what the new Web browser could do.
