Hello,
Just curious, as Firefox 3.6 nears Mozilla's end of life (April) will EL see Mozilla's current release when the time comes?
tnx Randy

Firefox is maintained in the base RHEL distribution, as such, EPEL has no control over what may or may not occur with it. I would contact your Red Hat representative for any kind of an official answer.
That being said, Red Hat reserves the right to rebase desktop software versions in RHEL - so my guess is that it will happen, but that is nothing more than a guess. Maintaining backports of security fixes that may or may not be known even would probably prove to be untenable. Again, this is my personal view of the topic - I don't work for Red Hat, and you'd have to talk to someone who does (in a forum other than this list) to get an official answer.
