So it is a dependent fork of Firefox
- godshatter 5y agoI'm assuming that what they meant by "independent" was "we're not the Firefox dev team".
- Isthatablackgsd 5y agoFork itself alone is enough since it implies they are not part of the original team. When they put "independent fork" which changes the meaning/intents, I would believe that they means they are forking Firefox and the original code will not the same or something. This is my assumption/observation that the owner or the members of this forked project is majority ESL. I would understand why they said independent fork because it made sense to them, however it implies different than "fork" alone.
- ranguna 5y ago> Fork itself alone is enough since it implies they are not part of the original team. Sorry, it does not. Fork just means that it's based on the same code, that's all.
