This means that we are still building from a Mozilla repository, typically the most recent Extended Support Release (ESR), using our local changeset for compatibility only. Instead of distributing the entire source, we will simply distribute our changeset and binaries; you clone their repo and apply our changeset to your local repo to build.
This is the current state and the most favourable, as it implies both feature and security parity with official tier 1 Firefox ESR builds. Maintaining source parity as long as possible is goal #1, as when we degrade to feature parity the closer we are to current source the more successful feature updates will be. However, there is a disadvantage in source parity in that it may be harder to integrate custom features. Source parity state is likely to end within one to two years of this document, given the pace and nature of previous Mozilla releases.
