No description provided.

There are a number of things that make this definition undesirable:

  • It assumes MOZ_OFFICIAL_BRANDING means the product is under a
    trademark owned by MoFo, which while currently accurate, complicates
    things for making the nightly branding an official branding of
    the mozilla-central repo (as per bug 1427472), as "Nightly" is not a
    trademark.
  • Presumably, downstreams may want something similar, but the string
    itself assumes the brand is always under a trademark owned by MoFo,
    which is not the case for forks.
  • The string actually doesn't appear in the installer that people
    download and might look at. It appears in the installer executable
    that is temporarily extracted to disk from a compressed archive
    contained in the actual installer, which itself doesn't include this
    string or other strings from the same .nsi file.
