Security > Stability when it comes to web browsers and i wonder if 1.5 is more secure than 2.14.  i wonder when 1.x will not have security patches anymore.  rh must document that somewhere and i will have to find it.

Rob: This distribution, is for the Enterprise (where the majority of
installations are on Servers) and the priorities are Stability and
Security and a Long Life, and not "the latest and greatest", that you
would find in Fedora Core or Ubuntu, 2 examples among many
distributions. The drawback here is that we are slow to get new stuff,
but that is intentional. Lucky here, that Upstream is including some
much newer stuff, in v.5.2! :-) Lanny
