Re: Firefox/Thunderbird trademarks: a proposal

There seems to be some confusion here. The Firefox and Thunderbird
official logos (e.g. the fox-on-globe) are covered by a different
license which is far too restrictive for Debian. They are not in the
downloadable source tarball, so no work would be needed to remove them.
Look into the source tarballs. At least the source of thunderbird ships
with official icons included [1] (downloaded a minute ago).
The entire discussion up to this point has not been about those logos,
as (I thought) we established very early on that both sides were happy
for the logos not to be used.
yes, for main this is definitly true. For non-free it would be your
decision to allow it (or deny) and our decision to do it (if technically
possible at all). So if you allow other distributions to distribute the
original icons (i don't know if you really do that or want it), I think
this would be a good indicator that this can be true for debian non-free
too.
