Mozilla & Gecko clones "The Firefox web browser has come a long way since the project was announced as a fork from the open-sourced Mozilla project. Version 1.0 was released in 2004 and quickly won critical acclaim for its speed, compatibility with web standards, and features. In a couple of years, Firefox managed to reach a milestone that its predecessor never quite reached: hitting 10 percent market share worldwide. Version 2 of the browser recently hit RC2, but the team is already making plans for 3.0. The Mozilla organization has set up a feature brainstorming web site that allows everyone to enter their favorite wish lists for the open source browser."

Who needs to fork? How about an optional command line "-debian" flag to start the application so instead of Firefox, it already says AssWeasel and the default FireFox graphic is replaced with the open soars one where the Weasel is himping the earth (http://www.geekzone.co.nz/blogimage/juha/iceweasel.jpg)

Keep your eyes peeled for the QT version (Kweasel) too. To ensure it is extra speedy it will be kluged into Konqueror as an added feature.
