Details

Why in the love of God Arch users have to use old Firefox/Thunderbird official packages when the whole world already uses their latest stable versions? For 1.4 years that I use Arch, Firefox/Thunderbird packages were ALWAYS behind the times!

If the current maintainer is not up to the task, please find someone else. This is an important app to leave it completely up in the air as it is now.

No, I won't use Testing.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Not a bug
Additional comments about closing:  Stop whining about these things. We have always had up2date packages of firefox ASAP, whether in testing or not.
The current firefox package was still in testing for a way too long time I have to agree.
You could just grab firefox from testing and leave the rest as-is.
