Should we include this bundled into the distro? I know there are problems with Gnash, but both are open source...

Also, I have not seen any IceWeasel packages lately. Is it still active?

I'm not sure about the advantages of including Iceweasel. Is it just an optimised build of Firefox? Or is it because it is free as in speech?

We should probably stick with Firefox. It is the de-facto browser for free Operating Systems, an it is great on Windows too. I still have yet to find anything better.Plus, Mozilla creates several other products that would be helpful, and easier to see if they came in a package like "Mozilla."
