Bulls**t.  My impression is that far more Americans using it than French 
people.  Yes, it's a popular distro in France, but it's also one of the most 
popular in the U.S.  For example, I don't like many things about Redhat, such 
as the fact that it has a strong preference for Gnome (which I can't stand), 
its horrible security record, and the fact that almost every release is 
broken in a major way.  Which is why I use Mandrake, and many other people 
use Suse.

Also, your suggestion of asking the user about Mozilla during installation: 
why?  The user could simply go to Edit->Preferences->Appearance->Languages 
and install the language pack they want after the distro is installed.  Yes, 
they have to read a couple of English menus, but it's not too difficult.
