[Sussex] IceWeasel

[Mike Diack]

Personally I think this forking of Firefox is a BAD idea. Especially since it's all over a trademark and logo, and Debian protect theirs also, putting them in the same boat as Mozilla Corp.
 
Surely the best way forward is compromise. This is one instance IMHO, where forks are BAD news.
