[Bug 269656] Re: AN IRRELEVANT LICENSE IS PRESENTED TO YOU FREE-OF-CHARGE ON STARTUP

[Christopher Blizzard]

Hi!  Mitchell Baker has made a post on this topic:

http://blog.lizardwrangler.com/2008/09/15/ubuntu-firefox-and-license-
issues/

The most important take away is that we (Mozilla) has been working on a
new license for quite a while that makes it clear that the code is
governed by FLOSS licenses and that we didn't make Ubuntu of Canonical
aware of the new licenses before they put the old one into their
packages, hence a lot of the confusion.

Mitchell and others will be making posts on the topic over the next few
weeks in order to get feedback on the new license, so stay tuned.
