So?

Well do you think the average windows users would really be interested in
the source? :) Let alone thinking of using it for debugging.

IMHO it's a nice opportunity for linuxxers to improve upon a fat, memory
hogging, non-modular, feature rich browser.

It would be interesting to note the effect of Netscape using gpl on other
vendors. It's the first important commercial vendor using it for a product
that really matters.

Hell, we can even _integrate_ it with linux and attract DOJ's attention.
