I would suggest another support policy.

* For cauldron, we always have latest versions of firefox and thunderbird,
no matter whether it is ESR.

* For released distros, we always update it till next ESR. i.e., for Mageia
1, we will have FF 9.0.1, 10.0, 10.0.1, 10.0.2, 10.0.3, but not 11.0. If
time passed, we will go directly 10.0.x to 17.0 ESR.

* For xulrunner, we always use latest ESR version for cauldron and released
distros.
