(still applies) 


j'en remets une couche (depuis la FAQ sur la policy :
http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/faq.html) : 
Can I modify your logos and distribute the result? 
 No, sorry. The logo files themselves (e.g. the ones distributed with the
 apps) are copyrighted, and so making and distributing any derivative works
 would be a copyright infringement. The logo's also a trademark, and so if the
 result is confusingly similar to the original, it's a violation of trademark
 law too. 

The logos themselves are the trademark, but the actual logo files are in the 
domain of copyright. You could release the files under an open source license 
while maintaining trademark rights. Why don't you do that?  
Because it would gain nothing, and lead to far more infringing uses of our
 marks. In practice, there is no use for the files except as expressions of
 our trademarks, so the rights associated with an open source license don't
 add anything.

Même si on n'est pas d'accord avec leur interprétation, l'explication est 
claire et limpide, et vaut licence . . .
