Yeah, I already wondered about the really misleading name. But I just
hadn't a better idea for a package name and so have chosen the
straight one.

But you're right, I should better name it "firefox-conkeror" (since
all the mozilla-firefox-* packages seemed to have been renamed to
firefox-*).

Well, yes, you're right about the Mozilla Foundation.

But Conkeror is no Mozilla Foundation project, it's just a Firefox
extenstion with a strange name and hosted at some site, which also
seems to have no affiliation with the Mozilla Foundation. It's rather
it's own foundation, see http://www.mozdev.org/about.html as we
http://www.mozdev.org/faq.html#mozilla.
