=== Firefox 3 ===

 * firefox-3.0 - (URL not yet available) - As featured in Hardy Heron's latest alpha, the Beta 3 preview of Firefox 3.0 is now available in the Gutsy Backports repository. It is found under the "firefox-3.0" package name and can be installed side-by-side with the Firefox 2.0.0.10 default with Gutsy. It is important to note, however, that running Firefox 3.0 will attempt to upgrade your profile so it is recommended that you back up your Firefox profile before trying it out. (EDITORS: I thought this backport was worth mentioning, though I wasn't sure where to put it. Please move around and tweak wording as you find appropriate!)
