Hello Myk Melez,

First of all, thank you for your response!

I'll talk about the project, it's a kiosk-style browser, using XULRunner 
24.0b10 32bit and SWT, the modifications we made were according to project 
needs and security requirements. All of this is in the testing phase, but the 
project is still evolving, the project is huge and XulRunner's share is small 
but of paramount importance.

This project currently runs in various parts of the country (Brazil) and is 
used by thousands of people, XULRunner comes as an evolution idea, but we need 
to update the firefox engine so we can no longer use XulRunner :( ....

I am looking for solutions to present to the customer.
