And I'm sorry to inform everyone that "Gerv is not responsible at this time for trademark permissions or approvals" (says Mike Connor in http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=354622;msg=59 ) and Gerv's reasonably fair approach to free software is apparently being systematically reversed by the Mozilla Corporation, right at a time that maximises disruption to the debian project. It seems that MozCorp wants veto rights over debian package maintenance and release policies, else the browser can't be Firefox.
