Me and MJ Ray had a long off list discussion about 8 months ago. The
conclussion was that we could redistribute the recipe and the binary
as an unbranded copy, which means that there will be no fox-icons.
I have since tried to get in contact with the Mozilla foundation to
get a clearing for using their official brands in our recipe and
binary, but haven't recieved an answer as of yet.

I myself wont make a new recipe or binary for Firefox until this
license issue is solved, but there are old recipes in the store which
can be updated with NewVersion quite easy.
I could make a recipe withuot the official branding, but since the
build time for Firefox is several hour if you don't have a monster
computer I wait. And for a binary, I recomend using the official build
as you then get the icons and logos.
