@Andrius and @Andy:
Here is some information regarding the UA in Debian's Iceweasel: http://
On a different note, does anyone have a link to the EULA or know how to recall it? I saw it the first 3 times I used Firefox after updating to 8.10alpha (I don't think I closed firefox correctly for various reasons and so the EULA appeared even though I had closed it) but I never did read it thoroughly and about:eula doesn't work.
Without having read it thoroughly I would rather see the EULA in a proper dialog with OK and Cancel (or yes and now... whatever) as well as an "I agree" check box as in common in the proprietary software world. I would also like to see a link for EULA in the Help menu, perhaps just above About. This should bring up the EULA with the "I agree" box already checked. As much as I hate EULAs, if you're going to present one at least do it properly and in a manner consistent with how users expect to see EULAs. One should not be able to use the browser without agreeing to the EULA. Period.
That said, I would much rather see Ubuntu rebrand Firefox than submit to an EULA. As I said, I haven't read it thoroughly (or even at all) but I have trouble thinking of anything a USER could do that would violate Firefox's trademarks. Now a developer redistributing Firefox... well, that's another story, but that's covered by the Mozilla License and not an EULA anyway. If it's installed on MY system there should not be any restrictions on how I USE the software.
