 This is an attempt to help people who want to keep using the latest upstream release, and will be updated from time to time. It is also a store for any changes which will need to be addressed when the book moves to the next ESR version.
 
-== Dependencies for 92.0 (latest upstream stable) ==
+== Dependencies for 93.0 (latest upstream stable) ==
 
-nss now needs to be >= 3.69.1
+nss now needs to be >= 3.70.0
 
 other minimum versions unchanged. 
 
 
-== Dependencies for 93.0beta ==
+== Dependencies for 94.0beta ==
 
-nss now needs to be >= 3.70
+nss now needs to be >= 3.71
 
-other minimum versions unchanged.
+libwebp should now be >= 1.2.1
 
-As with early betas of 92.0, some of the early betas needed static libstdc++.a to link logalloc-replay (that specifies -static-libstdc++). In later betas that is not compiled. While using a static system lib (outside of rust) is annoying, the expected lifetime of a firefox beta is short and this requirement can be remembered if a vulnerability in libstdc++ is ever disclosed.
+rustc now needs to be >= 1.53.0. For me (ken) this is enough to cause me to not spend time to build this at the moment - we will be moving to openssl-3.0, rust needs to be at least 1.55.0 to work with that. We will also be updating to llvm-13, but the update for using system llvm-13 will not arrive in rust until 1.56.0 which is expected on 2021-10-21.

I assume this requirement will continue for early betas.
