Just a few cents from me on a few of them...

We have made some progress here. It's looking like a squashfs issue. 
Hopefully we will know more tomorrow.

I think FESCo would like to allow more time for us to convince upstream
to accept the patch or for us to come up with one they will accept.
Perhaps we could see about getting Dan Walsh to chime in upstream and
help answer questions they have. Any talk about dropping firefox
trademarks or the like is IMHO way premature.
