I don't think "Iceweasel" is a great name, and to begin with, "Firefox"
isn't either. That, and since all Iceweasel does is strip the Firefox
trademark - essentially stripping the credit of Mozilla that they worked on
the browser (and they *do* own the trademark, and *do* work on it. Just
their way of giving them credit is unacceptable).

I'm not sure why is Debian encouraging the concept of taking someone's work
and rebranding it. It strips away the credit of the original authors. And
then they complain about Ubuntu... hypocrisy.
