* We probably need to work with Camino, and Linux distro's to find someone to upkeep the 1.8.1 branch due to Firefox dropping support for that branch soon. Thunderbird will likely still be supported, but having additional help outside of our small teams will be a MAJOR plus. --[[User:Callek|Justin Wood (Callek)]] 17:52, 17 November 2008 (UTC)

** According to a Novell forum posting Novell and RedHat will jointly backport security and stability fixes to 1.8.1. However it's unclear if they are going to be actively pushing their backports upstream. We should (in the NGs) explore a mechanism e.g. a drivers181 mailing list to coordinate driving their backports into the mozilla cvs tree. They might even be persuaded to use the mozilla cvs tree as their primary patch point and then pull updates down to their local repositories. --[[User:Philip Chee|Ratty]]
