We have recieved requests from this, It is fixable on Ubuntus end however, it would be great if mozilla would use it as default. Link i have is:

Only the official release builds use the Sunbird branding and artwork that is trademarked by the Mozilla Foundation. Nightly builds and unofficial builds use the generic Calendar branding and artwork. Firefox and Thunderbird do the same.

Enabling official branding for Ubuntu builds requires just one additional line in the build configuration (|ac_add_options --enable-official-branding|). 

But I don't know if Ubuntu is allowed to use it. You might checkout <http://www.mozilla.org/foundation/trademarks/> or contact the Mozilla Foundation. You could check too what Ubuntu did regarding Firefox/Thunderbird that has the same issue.

we use oficial branding for all other final releases we have also made an abrowser package with unofficial branding.
Thunderbird Firefox and seamonkey we use official branding, Debian however doesnt use the official brandin gon all Mozilla products AFAIK

This is not a bug on our side --> INVALID

As Stefan said in comment 1, please discuss this (whether you can use official branding for Sunbird in Ubuntu) with the Mozilla Foundation (Gervase Markham (gerv AT mozilla DOT org) might be a good contact person). Please keep either me or our lead developer, Philipp Kewisch (mozilla AT kewis DOT ch) in the loop.

I don't know what this issue is about, but it is a non issue from ubuntu side. No action required on mozilla side.

John, you don't need to mail anyone ;). Thanks!
