Obviously by all of my postings about mozilla.debian.net I am in complete agreement with you. However others disagreed and darn them they pushed the browsers into Testing and Stable anyway. Let's simply agree to ignore them. It would be much better if those were in the squeeze-updates section aka the old volatile section. You should become a DD yourself and then work to move the browsers to those sections. All of that is a completely different topic from Stable Squeeze being a security release only archive until the next major Stable Wheezy release. Stable means stable. Thrashing there is very bad. That is incompatible with our view of the current browser situation. Let's not lobby for making changes to the stable archive. That is what the squeeze-updates section is for. Bob
