Yes. We’re no longer in a freeze but at the beginning of a development
cycle.

Note that we’re mostly doing the same for GNOME; skipping most of 2.32
in unstable, to work on 2.91 in experimental.

Hi,

That would be my favourite.

I use Conkeror (which is a XULRunner application and hence depends on
xulrunner) with 3.6 since it is in experimental and it works without
problems since a year or so. Ubuntu has the Debian package with just
slight modification of some defaults together with xulrunner-1.9.2 in
Lucid 10.04 LTS. They just had to backport a few upstream fixes.

Cons: We lose version 3.6, which has several advantages over 3.5, and
keep 3.5, which is already very outdated.


Right. That's why I want to see 3.6 in unstable as soon as possible
independently of the state of 4.0.



I concur with Axel. Been using iceweasel 3.6 since soon after it
hit experimental, and stuff like vlc/unstable work like a champ.
