I think plenty of dialog with Mozilla is a good idea. If they don't
like the
way we package Thunderbird or any of the other packages,
I should point out again that (given the discussions I've had with the
Thunderbird maintainer) we are almost certainly going to be happy with
what Debian itself does.
Debian Web browser based on Mozilla Firefox
Debian Email client based on Mozilla Thunderbird
Debian browser suite based on Mozilla
As someone raised earlier, isn't this just replacing one trademark
problem with another (Debian)?
Those also aren't particularly wieldy names for a title bar or package ;-)
I have a hard time believing that after all this time they want people
to get away from their names, but if that's really what they want, let's
do it.
No, we don't want people to get away from the names. But we do want a
way of ensuring that they are a mark of quality in trademark terms.
