I totally agree with the last two posts, well said both of you  |
It depends. I read an interview with one of the Project managers for Windows XP Service Pack 2 (v. nice looking woman, the interview had a picture). They asked her about the size of Service Pack 2, and apparently, the bulk of it was due to stuff that needed to be changed because they had patched other stuff.. It might be the same with firefox. If they patch a core function within the program, they may need to patch all the parts of the program that rely on that core function.
