Expect:=20

* <http://www.freshports.org/www/firefox> to step from 56.x to 57.0; and=20
* <http://www.freshports.org/www/firefox-esr> to remain at 52.x=20

=E2=80=93 and remain at 52.x for a limited period as defined at=20
<https://wiki.mozilla.org/RapidRelease/Calendar#Future_branch_dates>

Issue
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D

The limitation to 52.x will be troublesome for users whose workflows requir=
e,
or will require:=20

* a greater version of Firefox
* but not 57.

Cross reference

1406737 - ESR: extended support for a Firefox 56.x release
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3D1406737>

=E2=80=93 expect more rationale under that Mozilla bug.

Thanks
