Actually, he did, in the previous posting. Which is admirable, because
this is a dauntingly huge task (and he seems semi-aware of it) - in the
area of a few hours *per week*, on average. mozilla.org (and before it
Netscape) has a full-time staff position just for security (he also does
security features, though).
You're welcome to attempt to convince the Mozilla project to change
the way that they work for the benefit of distribution security teams.
I don't even know what exactly you do want the Mozilla project to
change. You are officially part of the Mozilla security group since some
time, so you are the right person to discuss a collaboration, and
execute on it. Note that a discussion involves more than 1-2 emails with
statements and requests.
BTW: Where are you located physically? Maybe you can meet with
mozilla.orgians in person. I think you'll like Daniel Veditz in
particular. And Mozilla Foundation needs more of the SPI spirit than the
OSAF spirit anyways.
I hope you can understand, though, that the Mozilla project can't
maintain whatever version you pick for Debian stable, for *3 years*.
1.7.x already lives since almost a year. But, as I said, that's not the
problem right now.
At the moment, I am still waiting for an answer to the question at the
end of my first posting, which Alex repeated:
What's preventing you from shipping Moz 1.7.11 and FF 1.0.6 right now?
