Releases/Firefox 2.0.0.20 MU 2

« Release Schedule

Firefox 2.0.0.20->3.0.9 MU is a major update to Firefox 2.0.0.x, bringing users to 3.0.9. This is the final major update planned for Firefox 2 users.

For this update, we plan to modify the major update content, adding a link to a one- or two-question survey asking why the user is choosing not to upgrade.

It's known that, for this upgrade, at least 10% of users *can't* upgrade due to being on unsupported OSes (Windows 95/98, Mac OS X 10.2/10.3).
