Thanks Daniel for clarifying, sorry for my sceptical reaction, but it was far 
from clear from Alexanders email address what his position was with 
Canonical :-/
Understand that for "outsiders" who are not into Launchpad and IRC everyday 
it's simply not possible to know who is who. There is no list of that kind 
and as everyone with a Launchpad account can post...

May I suggest some wiki or static web page stating that Canonical ensures 
security updates of Firefox 1.5 during the whole Dapper LTS cycle that I 
could hand out to "my" LTS "customers"?
I know I'm bothering but some clear communication would be really handy, 
especially having naive users getting mad about security issues since I 
showed them the amount of contamination of their former Windows 
installations. Every other day someone drops a "Oh but Firefox 1.5 is not 
supported anymore" somewhere and this ads a lot of confusion to freshly 
converted minds :-)
