Foxing the Enterprise: With 10 Firefox takes on the enterprise

Mozilla, the company behing the FOSS world beating browser Firefox, announced Wednesday that they will be releasing the ESR version of Firefox is for use by enterprises, public institutions, universities and other organizations that centrally manage their Firefox deployments with Firefox 10. Releases of the ESR will occur once a year, providing these organizations with a version of Firefox that receives security updates but does not make changes to the Web or Firefox Add-ons platform. We have worked with many organizations to ensure that the ESR balances their need for the latest security updates with the desire to have a lighter application certification burden.
