Debian Forced to Stop using the name ”˜Firefox' (2006)
The Mozilla Foundation has asked Debian Linux to either use both the ‘Firefox’ name and the Artwork or get rid of both. Because the Artwork has non-free Copyright License, it seems Debian (and most likely, many other Linux Distros) has no choice but to change the name of the application to something else. IceWeasel is the number one choice so far!
