firefox is no different than any other package with regards to policy.
When we get it packaged up, we always use current "bleeding-edge"
versions, and 3 is newer than 2. Of course it is a bit different as it
is a monster piece of software, but the same rules apply whether we
are talking about firefox and python (large packages) or which and
diffstat (small single-binary packages).
