**Q: Why are there no more backports of Mozilla products anymore?**

A: Backports of Mozilla products (Firefox, Thunderbird, Seamonkey; aka
Iceweasel, Icedove, Iceape) are maintained by the Debian Mozilla Team
independently on [mozilla.debian.net](http://mozilla.debian.net/),
because the offered variety of version exceeds what is possible within
the rules for Debian Backports as it e.g. includes backports of
packages not yet in testing or beta and even alpha releases.
