t
in Ubuntu as long as ubuntu folks aren't modifying it and then distributing
it under the firefox name/logo.

All Mozilla is asking is that if people have patches they would like applie=
d
then they should take them to the moz foundation and get them worked in tha=
t
way.  If ubuntu wants to change the browser, and not go through the moz
foundation, then call it something else and use a different logo.

Why doesn't ubuntu just leave the firefox browser (with name/logo) in the
distro and not modify it, and if an ubuntu developer has a patch for it, or
what not, then go join in on the moz foundation and get it worked in that
way -- seems to me that that's the way things should be.

Then the sweet patch impacts everyone using firefox, not just ubuntu folks.

Cheers,
Paul
