Mozilla Nixes Firefox EULA Requirement
Less than a week ago, Mozilla asked (and Canonical relucantly agreed, in development versions of Intrepid Ibex) that users be required on first use to agree to a EULA before using Firefox. This drew lots of criticism, and Mozilla agreed that the requirement was flawed. Now, according to a story at Groklaw, the EULA requirement's been done away with. From the Groklaw article linked: "Bottom line: Now, you can install and use Firefox without having to agree to a EULA. The services have been separated out. If they were opt in instead of opt out, I'd be happier, but this is acceptable to me. There may be further tweaks, I understand, but I think it's time to acknowledge that Mozilla is behaving very well indeed now and demonstrating a desire to get this right."
Everyone I know agrees that the awesome bar is exactly that, awesome.
If you didn't want the new features, why did you upgrade?
How we know is more important than what we know.
... Put your license and other info under "Help"... people will see it if/when necessary.
You're kidding, right? You mean that Help that people click only after dialing 3, 4 or 10 digits on a phone and calling someone? Who then treks down the hall / across town to move the mousie thing for them? That "Help"?
