Hi guys,

as the subject says there are test packages available for your beloved
Fedora's. Especially Thunderbird 17 (Earlybird now) needs some love from
you (the 17ESR line is going to be a background for the future ones) so
it would be great if you can install it, run it and report any issues.
All instructions are at:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Firefox

NOTE: All those packages are pre-release and are targeted to experienced
users!

Your Mozilla Team.
Does it mean Fedora will stop shipping the latest FF/TB and stick to ESR
instead? Or is it for parallel-installation purposes?

Yes, it's for parallel-installation purposes, generally for testing the upcoming ESR line. see the https://mail.mozilla.org/pipermail/thunderbird-testers/2012-September/000094.html - Thunderbird 17ESR may be the last release created by mozilla thunderbird developers, all next ones may be driven / developed by community.

So the Thunderbird bugs reported now may be fixed by mozilla developers before the package is handled to community. The Firefox is just complementary here, Fedora it still going to receive latest releases. The ESR line is shipped on RHEL only.

ma.
