Hello,

A post from Alexander Sack on the debian-legal mailing list 
(http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2004/12/msg00328.html) is 
announcing that the mozilla foundation asked Debian to remove all 
occurences of "Mozilla" from their mozilla products in order not to 
infrige with the mozilla foundation trademark policies. Especially the 
community editions terms as described in 
http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/policy.html

I guess it also applies to Fedora? was Fedora also contacted by the 
Mozilla Foundation?

Unless i'm missing something, it sounds like the Mozilla Foundation is 
asking for a little too much from the packagers...
