FWIW, I'm maintaining mozilla.debian.net because we still don't have no
freaking PPAs despite the announcement a few years ago that we would have
them soon. I'm not holding my breath. Also because the process for
backports doesn't allow things that are not in testing to be in
backports, which means it is not possible to have a non ESR firefox
there.
