And just a few days after that Mark Shuttleworth asked calm and understanding to make public that Mozilla called Ubuntu showing the user a copy of the EULA (End User License Agreement ") Firefox 3.0 during his first run, creating a potential problem similar which forced the project to change its Debian package for the Firefox browser iceweasel, comes a story even more poignant:

Mitchell Baker, in the same Mozilla Foundation, confirmed that "We understood that anything similar to a EULA is annoying, even if the content is based on FLOSS (Free / Libre / Open Source Software). So we are eliminating."

It is not yet clear what will be the new way to inform the user on the license of Firefox, the MPL (Mozilla Public License), but Baker said they received many tips and are working on it.
