<div dir="ltr">Hi Omer,<br><br>Well, for home use you can use testing instead of stable to get more updated software.<br>In that case, you might want to follow the security team's policy about testing.<br><br>Firefox/iceweasel 3.6 won't enter unstable in the near future, as this requires an update for xul, which is also used by thunerbird/icedove.<br>
<br>The maintainer said he is focused on 3.5.8 for the next stable.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Feb 18, 2010 at 5:46 PM, Omer Zak <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:w1@zak.co.il">w1@zak.co.il</a>></span> wrote:<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">Today when I visited <a href="http://www.youtube.com/" target="_blank">http://www.youtube.com/</a>, I was greeted by a message<br>
that my browser will be unsupported soon, and my browser was the current<br>
Iceweasel 3 version from Debian Lenny.<br>
<br>
The earliest Firefox version to be supported is Firefox 3.6.<br>
I quickly browsed <a href="http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php" target="_blank">http://backports.org/dokuwiki/doku.php</a> (the Debian<br>
Backports), and found that Firefox 3.5.6 was backported to Debian Lenny<br>
as Iceweasel 3.5.6. So I installed it to ease future upgrade to<br>
Iceweasel 3.6 once it is available.<br>
<br>
So now I hope that someone will backport and create Iceweasel 3.6 before<br>
YouTube cuts off all support for non-HTML5-compliant browsers.<br>
Otherwise, I may have to install Firefox 3.6 not as a Debian package.<br>
<br>

P.S.: the upgrade is only semi-forced because YouTube is a Nice To Have<br>
rather than Essential.<br>
