Well, I follow the Firebird lists (and am currently writing an app that
uses the embedded dll - yummy - no horrible installation scripts! - any
chance of putting that on the PostgreSQL todo list?) and on those lists
there are senior Firebird people who have posted quotes from emails
which they say (and I have no reason to disbelieve them) are from senior
Mozilla people to the effect that they will stop using the Firebird
moniker.

There are also emails complaining about the sloth - not to say
deliberate pussy-footing around - the the Mozilla crowd have been up to
in not honouring their written committment to remove the Firebird part
of the name for their browser.

There are those in the Firebird (db) crowd who are on the verge of
suing, so it could get nasty yet!
