I must admit that I had not given much thought to naming and trademarks in free software earlier. I'm wondering if the situation with Firefox is any different from other big names which are trademarked, like KDE, GNOME, Linux, or OpenOffice. I have not heard similar controversies about them in the context of Ubuntu or Debian or any other distribution. The presence of the anti-phishing service is one difference, but is that it? Is there a reason why Firefox gets talked about more? Is there any distribution which has unbranded versions of the above mentioned products, to gain the flexibility of modifying them?
This has been said earlier, but I'd like to reiterate how awesome it is that anyone is welcome to take part in a discussion in which Mark himself is participating. :-) -- AN IRRELEVANT LICENSE IS PRESENTED TO YOU FREE-OF-CHARGE ON STARTUP https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/269656 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
