Thanks Phillipe.
That was reassuring!

There is a new automated build system which is being implemented (while
previously the build was manual )
That explains why new builds have been stopped for a while (that and the
holiday break)
And specific things which make that build a bit more difficult and
unique:
There are a lot of external dependencies and some technical constraints
of the code layout for the Mozilla browser code for each platforms:
(see for instance: https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi? id=158097
) which demands extra work to get a build working properly.

There are also a few issues with  getting a usable xulrunner build at
Mozilla which may have slowed things down a bit.
But the build is being worked on so everyone can soon enjoy the latest
and greatest.

By the way, would you be willing to help on the build too?
You can see the work in progress here:

Hello there.

Why aren't there any updates on ATF? something happened to
the project?
The last weekly build is still from last year. It used to be
every 15
days at most...

anyone knows what happened?
