That's a little misleading.  The Mozilla Foundation has stated that you
can't use the Firefox trademark if you make modifications to the
codebase.  They've effectively removed the software freedom if you call
it Firefox.

I agree with Debian's decision.  And I'm excited about the Epiphany with
a webkit backend.

I understand their need to protect their trademark but a more reasonable
policy like "noting the changes in a significant way" or some such would
be more friendly.  It's difficult to find a vectored Firefox logo also,
they only release compiled copies (bitmaps).
