I'll wait until you get to the point where Sam clarifies and says that  
by "ignored" he meant "we won't be doing milestone release triage  
style stuff on it", not "we won't help with patches and reviews as  
always."

We've been through this before with the Gecko 1.8 end of life, and  
everyone survived. Don't panic. What we're primarily talking about is  
stopping the 6-8 week milestone release cycles.

cheers,
mike
