I've realized that not all the users are happy with the exclusive usage of Firefox Sync services for sync their favorites/bookmarks and/or plugins. Maybe offer the chance of put their own Mozilla Sync 1.5 based server is a big shot for anyone that wants to get more privacy for everyone.

I'm not quite sure anyone realizes what it takes to maintain a small project like this and keep it up to date in line with a project from an organization with paid employees like Firefox & Mozilla -- especially considering how many changes Firefox has seen in recent months. https://www.ghacks.net/2017/03/07/cyberfox-proclaims-death-of-web-browser/

Even the ESR branch offers no guarantee of stability:

Which leads me to wonder how many people use IceCat versus how many that actually contribute to the project?

    * Firefox 52.0 ESR was released 6th March:
    https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.0esr/
    <https://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/52.0esr/>
        This is the first ever released Firefox ESR that is based on
    Electrolysis, as the previous version was 45.8.0

    When can we expect IceCat 52.0?
