I have firefox 2.0.0.10 as installed by the Linux distro. If I were to
grab one from the nightly build, I would take it from the 2.0.0.xx
directory. For instance, 2008-02-01-21-firefox2.0.0.12-110n is the
most recent one. I'm taking a look at the Tinderbox tests as well
which requires using an optimized browser. So, I would like to ensure
picking up the appropriate browser environment for the test setup. Let
me know.

thanks
