The Mozilla team has more or less accepted
Microsoft's help in working on Firefox for Windows Vista. Besides the fact that the two parties are
already working together, Mike Beltzner, Mozilla developer, has
accepted Microsoft's invitation, saying:
"Yes, we'd definitely be interested in getting some 1:1 support." Note Sam Ramji's good sense of humour:
"I sent this invitation to staff@mozillaNOSPAM.org as well, but in case their
spam filters are set to block @microsoft.com email addresses, I'm
posting here."

Look at the distrust going on here. Mozilla's code is still Mozilla's code.
Vista contains a lot of new features Firefox would benefit from tapping into. (for example: background OS-level RSS checking). Getting Microsoft's support will only make a better integrated Firefox, and for me, good OS integration is oh so very important to being happy with an app. (e.g. why I prefer to use Office:Mac over OOo despite the price difference)
