yes? Has there been a firefox exposure since Edgy stopped getting security
updates? Do you think there will be a _real_ one (rather than just a
potentiality) against the current Edgy version of FF in the next two years?
How many people who are still running Edgy on a non-server computer (so
it's presumably over a year old already), will still have that computer in
two years? I believe the exposure is negligible. Heck, I believe the
exposure of a server is negligible, but obviously greater than that of a
pure client.
