 As mentioned below by Joey from Debian weekly news, I personally would 
much appreciate Debian Developers/ package maintainers to consider 
discussing replacing Mozilla , now superseded and mothballed by Mozilla 
and replaced by the Seamonkey Council, and now Seamonkey 1.02 stable 
release.
This email was written in a Seamonkey cmg, installed on Kanotix, but a 
Deb package would be better perhaps in the repos.
I greatly hope this will be considered soon in at Debian.
Thanks too Joey
All the Best in there
