Firefox 1.5 will not get into Warty, Hoary, nor Breezy main (unless the
security fixes cannot be backported to the 1.0 branch), and I doubt it
will find its way to hoary-backports.

As for breezy-backports, this is still not decided - a lot of packages
will have to be recompiled against the new firefox-dev (for example,
GNOME's Help stops working if you simply rebuild Dapper's Firefox 1.5).

Please see the relevant threads at ubuntu-backports ML and forum.

1.5 is the same as 1.5RC3 - they released
the final candidate without any changes. :o)
