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.

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/>
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?
