Is there any one that is still using mozilla?  It hasn't been updated
in a long time and I am not sure it will even build.  When seamonkey
1.1.13 was release this is the message from the devs:

"Today, the SeaMonkey project released a new version of its all-in-one 
internet suite. SeaMonkey 1.1.13 closes several security 
vulnerabilities</a> and fixes several smaller problems found in
previous versions. With that, SeaMonkey stays at the same level of
security as its sibling Firefox 2, which is issuing updates for the
same problems this week as well.

The SeaMonkey team urges users of older SeaMonkey versions, including 
the SeaMonkey 1.0.x series, which no longer receives security updates, 
to upgrade. Additionally, the team continues to strongly urge people 
still using the old Mozilla Suite or Netscape 4, 6 or 7 to upgrade to 
the new SeaMonkey 1.1.13 version. All these older software packages 
suffer from a large and steadily increasing number of security 
vulnerabilities because they are no longer being maintained. SeaMonkey 
1.1.13 is a modern, drop-in replacement, providing the same familiar 
suite functionality with additional features and fully up to date
security."


I would vote to remove it from the grimoire.  Any other thoughts on
this?
