It is not fair to put Firefox and Chromium in the same bag. I was working around the Firefox support and yes, building Firefox is complicated, but it is because it is a complex program, not because some large advertising company just throws randomly code over the fence. Mozilla people were always technical, and we were and are able to provide competent builds of the browser.

OK, I don’t know enough about Chromium, but I can see that my colleague who works on packaging it in SUSE, is getting a bit green around the time of release, and I have never had the courage to ask about his alcohol consumption in that time.
