 <justdave> at the time that text was valid , you needed a developer release to even have "Report a Broken Website" available in your Help menu

the text in question is "To report a broken website, first please make sure that you are running the latest developer release of Firefox. By the time consumer releases are produced (such as Firefox 1.0), the core Gecko website rendering engine is often several months old and many bugs will already have been fixed."  

Reproducible: Always

2.
3.
Actual Results:  
find outdated text

Expected Results:

Anyone know how the update text should read or whether this page is even needed anymore?

Report A Broken Website has been removed for 4.0, in favour of the Feedback mechanism (input.mozilla.com) and so this page either needs removing or rewriting.I now can't even see a link to this page anywhere. 

The aim here was to direct the wrong sorts of input away from Bugzilla, and we directed to Hendrix and this page. However, input replaces them both. 

So I suggest we remove this web page, put in a redirect to direct its URL to input.mozilla.com (or to a specific "submit a report" page on that site) and grep for links in the Bugzilla codebase and also direct them straight to input.mozilla.com.

aakash: what's the right URL on input.mozilla.com for submitting input?

Is <http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/beta/feedback> right? Is that URL (with "beta" in it) valid for final versions?

The right URL is http://input.mozilla.com/feedback . We have an extensive URL sniffing rules that determine whether to prop up between beta and release feedback pages.
