<PRE>And, don't forget, we still have a package named firefox-beta. If we stick
with FF10, then some day we will come to a situation of firefox-10.0.4 and
firefox-beta-15b1 for Mageia 2, which is unacceptable. Or, we should make
an exception on firefox-beta, it should be obsoleted by updated firefox for
stable distros.
&#22312; 2012-2-6 &#19979;&#21320;3:27&#65292;&quot;Funda Wang&quot; &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">fundawang at gmail.com</A>&gt;&#20889;&#36947;&#65306;

&gt;<i> The key is, we always have the latest series of supported product line
</I>&gt;<i> from upstream, neither latest version nor latest supported version.
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;<i> And, such an update policy is based on the imagination of 70% of Mageia 2
</I>&gt;<i> users will upgrade to Mageia 3 immediately when released.
</I>&gt;<i> &#22312; 2012-2-6 &#19978;&#21320;10:07&#65292;&quot;Funda Wang&quot; &lt;<A HREF="https://www.mageia.org/mailman/listinfo/mageia-dev">fundawang at gmail.com</A>&gt;&#20889;&#36947;&#65306;
</I>&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> I would suggest another support policy.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> * For cauldron, we always have latest versions of firefox and
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> thunderbird, no matter whether it is ESR.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> * For released distros, we always update it till next ESR. i.e., for
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Mageia 1, we will have FF 9.0.1, 10.0, 10.0.1, 10.0.2, 10.0.3, but not
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> 11.0. If time passed, we will go directly 10.0.x to 17.0 ESR.
</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> * For xulrunner, we always use latest ESR version for cauldron and
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> released distros.

</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> ESR is a 1y extended supported release...
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> looking at the image we'd be having supported versions for our 9month
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> release
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> schedule every time... we should totally use this release and not go
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> towards
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> FF11 for our release.
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> We've been complaining about the too quick release schedule... this is
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> our
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> chance!
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> ( i think if the FF maintainer wishes, he could also do backports of the
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> regular releases... )
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i> i'm hoping everyone agrees? including FF maintainer?
</I>&gt;&gt;&gt;<i>
