No, but binary packages are built against the core OS as shipped, so the ports people try to approach something like "stability" every six months. Firefox in particular has had -current a few versions ahead of -release for, I don't know, several years now at least. And, as mentioned before, we have more architectures than i386 to think about here. If you just want a more recent browser, Chromium is at 18.0.1025.162, which is ahead of Debian Testing, even (go team!). Weldon
