</I>><i> have consistent versions, at least for Firefox and Thunderbird.
</I>This is not the case currently, we have latest stable Firefox, but Thunderbird
3.1 series
for mga1 as long as they're supported upstream (cf
<A HREF="http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/all-older.html">http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/all-older.html</A> )
and for Seamonkey we have a totally out-of-date rebranding called iceape,
which nobody seems interested in for stable release, with many
open security issues (cf other thread: "[Mageia-dev] Seamonkey package")
><i> - mozilla updates without security fixes are uncommon, so we will not reduce
</I>><i> the number of update with ESR; the update will only have less changes, so
</I>><i> less risk of regressions.
</I>><i> - If we don't choose Firefox ESR, we should at least consider using ESR for
</I>><i> xulrunner.
