Mozilla's trademark requirements violate Freedom #2
The freedom to study how the program works, and change it to make it
do what you wish (freedom 1). Access to the source code is a
precondition for this.
We're NOT allowed to make changes (patches) without their permission.
This is defacto non-free. I understand we work with upstream but that
shouldn't prevent us from maintaining it.
That's just the same with most distro trademarks (fedora, debian, etc ...)
Mozilla does not forbid you to study/modify/distribute their work but as
fedora to distribute a modified version under their trademark.
That's why we have generic-* packages in our repositories.
