Re: Unclear Firefox situation
I think Debian does allow it, but I don't even remember those package names. BTW: iceweasel.spec contains obsolete version of package, with well known security bugs. Those Debian patches seems to simply replace logos and some texts in source. After removing debian specific chunks from patches it would be simple cp of current specs + one more patch + replacing software names in specs.

Any particular reason? Are we allowed to do that? We can use community edition instead of Bon Echo but I doubt we are allowed to ship it as Firefox. I didn't used 2.0.0.7 yet but 2.0.0.6 was BonEcho on both Ac and Th. Quick look at changelog says that it still should be BonEcho or I missed something. Anyway, problem is more complex. We can't use branding for Thunderbird and SeaMonkey as well. Last one is problematic as it doesn't matter if you do official build or not, its always branded. Maybe we should use Debian patches and change software names, logos etc to Iceweasel, Iceape and Icedove? Does Debian allows use of these patches in other distros? I have it in my looong todo but with low priority. I think Debian does allow it, but I don't even remember those package names. BTW: iceweasel.spec contains obsolete version of package, with well known security bugs. BTW: if I remember correctly license also disallows use of terms mozilla firefox and mozilla thunderbird anywhere in package including executable file names. Mozilla Community Edition Policy doesn't say anything about files or filenames, just: You may not prefix the name product with Mozilla (e.g. Mozilla Firefox Community Edition is not allowed.) nor use the official Firefox or Thunderbird logos to identify the software.
