Eclipse Community

Due to server slowness, downtime, and other issues, Eclipse will be moving to a more stable and efficient platform that should result in much better stability. There is no timeline for this yet, just want you to know what's happening with all the downtime and I have a plan to fix it.

Greetings to the entire Eclipse Community,

I noticed that r3dfox does not have an automatic update procedure for either the portable or installable versions, and the manual update procedure is a bit inconvenient.

I would like to update r3dfox only when security flaws are serious and a patch is necessary: how can I know when serious security flaws have been fixed between one version and another, and ignore releases that, even if not applied, do not compromise the security of my system?

I hope you can help me. Thank you.

Okay, thank you.

For details on security bugs and other fixes, I guess I can always refer to the official Firefox changelog available here:
