I'm not sure how to treat this. The Release Notes for freeIPA 1.2 only 
listed FF 1.5, 2.0, and 3.0 as supported versions. Should I update the 
Release Notes to include 3.5+? Should we just post something on 
freeipa.org as "News"? What happens when FF 4.0 comes out and (maybe) 
the problem reappears?

This sounds like a dumb question but I just haven't come across it 
before :-\

Thanks.
