Hi,

just a quick note about upcoming 78 releases for firefox and
thunderbird:
- firefox 78.0 is planned next week, pkgs for rc1 available on my repo
  (cf https://packages.rhaalovely.net/README.txt - or the various
'beta/release branches from https://cgit.rhaalovely.net/mozilla-firefox/
if you prefer to build it yourself, with a small mozilla.port.mk diff
below)
- www/firefox-esr will stay at 68.10 when 78.0 is released, but will move to
  78.1 when www/mozilla-firefox moves to 79 (end of july according to
https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar)
- mail/mozilla-thunderbird will move to 78 when its released sometimes
  in july (according to the 'upcoming releases' section of
https://wiki.mozilla.org/Thunderbird:Home) - i've been using all the
75/76/77/78 thunderbird betas on my work machines for the past months
without issues.

If you're a thunderbird user, i encourage you to test the beta releases (just
uploaded 78.0beta3 on my repo), as there are quite some changes compared to 68:
- some addons will disappear because of the move to webextensions
- first-class integration of openpgp (supersedes security/enigmail)
- no more subpackaging for lightning, its installed by default
- lots of quite ui improvements/tweaks
- and many more changes, cf
  https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/78.0beta/releasenotes/ and the
same releasenotes for all the betas since
https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/69.0beta/releasenotes/

i dont use enigmail nor pgp so havent tested at all the pgp integration, only
checked that the relevant libs were building fine.

Landry
