I would ask that it be coordinated with Gnome release and NOT ship with
beta version of Firefox - whoever was responsible for that in 2009.06
ought to keel hauled on Ellison's yacht.
Firefox is not part of GNOME release. Firefox has its own released
cycles. GNOME's browser is called epiphany. Though almost all GNOME
based distro shipped Firefox as the primary browser for obvious reason.
The choice of beta version of Firefox in 2009.06 is more of a balance
between the latest and greatest versus stability. OpenSolaris releases
have been geared towards early adopters for the first few releases, so
there were lots of requests for latest version of software. In fact,
there have been some requests in the mailing list to have Firefox 3.6 to
be included in 2010.03.
