Description

[Deb Richardson [:dria] (plz NEEDINFO)]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.8) Gecko/20050511 Firefox/1.0.4

Noticed today that the mozilla.org copyright is currently in the footer as being
assigned to "The Mozilla Organization", which, as I understand it, is not a
legally defined entity.


Reproducible: Always

Deb: we should just remove this text when we do the next update to the footer
(currently being discussed in email). The copyright holders are all the
contributors.

Asa did the other footer changes we needed.  Perhaps he'd be willing to take
this on?

Asa: can you change the main website footer for us?
