</I>&gt;&gt;<i> We've been complaining about the too quick release schedule... this is our

</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
</I>&gt;&gt;<i> ( i think if the FF maintainer wishes, he could also do backports of the

</I>&gt;<i> I don't agree. But i'm not the maintainer.

</I>&gt;<i> Why not?

A reason can be that a new version can need new versions of external
stuffs ( like nss, nspr, sqlite3, ... )
