One of the founders of Firefox was quite hostile towards me after citing some
item where Mozilla is slagged off for distributing DRM prisons, aka iPods. He
wasn't a fan of Linux, to say the very least. Then again, I don't think [m]any
people in Mozilla care much about Free software. IOW, nothing has really
changed and I doubt the changes at a managerial level will play a role. If
somehow they do, then heck... there's always the IceWesel, which looks cuter
anyway!
