I think others had made several good reasons behind the current Debian
situation on this browser.  I think it is quite sane not to do weekly
build.  (If done, please send such ones to experimental.)

Please understand releasing big packages such as this one so frequenly will
stress many porting efforts for no obvious gains.

There are many other packages which we are really behind.
