The plan
== The plan ==
* We will update the google homepage snippets for 3.5 users, encouraging them to get the latest Firefox 4 (already done)
* 3.5.19 is the last planned update to Firefox 3.5
* When 3.5.19 is released we will redirect the whatsnew/firstrun pages
** We need to be sure we don’t offer Firefox 4 for those on 10.4 or PPC macs
* When 3.5.19 is released we blog/announce about 3.5 being dead and encourage users to update to Firefox 4 (and say the prompt will be released on the 3rd)
 
''-- Wait for the whatsnew/firstrun pages and press announcement to work --''
 
* We will do the advertised update to 4.0 as planned on May 3rd
** We need to be sure we don’t offer Firefox 4 for those on 10.4 or PPC macs
** We will wait at least a week or so for uptake
* We will ''-- Wait for the advertised update the google homepage snippets for 3.5 users, encouraging them to get the latest Firefox 4 (if it isn’t already done)to get taken by users --'' * On June 1st May 17th we will switch the snippets over to the “unsupported” snippets
** The unsupported version snippets are at http://google_snippets.stage.mozilla.com/en-3.0/snippet-1.html
** We need to be sure we don’t offer Firefox 4 for those on 10.4 or PPC macs
 ''-- Wait for the "unsupported" snippets to work --'' ==== Option 1 ====* On Jun 22nd June 21st we are releasing Firefox 5 and 3.6.18.
