Gnuzilla is a free software derivation of the Mozilla Application Suite created by the GNU Project as an attempt to be entirely free software. The reasons being that while the Mozilla project produces free and open software, the binaries released include additional non-free software. In addition, non-free software is also distributed as plugins. Despite this fork, the Gnuzilla and Mozilla projects will continue to sychronize with upstream releases in the future and keeps the triple-licensing to facilate the reuse of code.
Gnuzilla encompasses IceWeasel, a derivation of the Firefox web browser.
