For 10.3 you can use

http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/mozilla/openSUSE_10.3/

as a repository for it

When you install Firefox 3.0 from this repo, how are ongoing security
updates handled? Does Yast and YOU push out updates, or we one check the
repo manually from time to time for updates?

The online update won't look at it, because there are no patchinfo files, so
you have to check it yourself manually

Just do "zypper lu -t package" to see what's available across all your repos,
or, to just get the updates from one repository, do "zypper lu -t package -r
<repository number>" where the number is the one listed on the left when you
do "zypper sl"

Or do it through the YaST GUI :)
