Hi,
I missed a piece of this discussion: are you sure M. foundation is
going to drop the suite soon? In my knowledge they thought about it
some time ago but then they changed of mind, at least for the near
future.
See in this page point 2) of section "a new roadmap":
http://www.mozilla.org/roadmap.html
"# Updated: Continue to perform sustaining maintenance, including
security updates, on the SeaMonkey application suite's final stable
branch (1.7.x) for enterprises and other organizations with large
existing Mozilla deployments."
Other then that I think leaving it out of CD or even Main for Ubuntu
will be fine.
bye
