A few days ago IceCat 31.5.0 was released. Its the latest stable version 
and the first version with multiple OS support: GNU/Linux, Android, OS 
X, and Windows. However, currently there's no support for FreeBSD (or 
any other BSD variants for that matter).

Would any BSD packager have interest in porting a working IceCat 31.5.0 
version to FreeBSD?


"GNUzilla is the GNU version of the Mozilla suite, and GNU IceCat is the 
GNU version of the Firefox browser. Its main advantage is an ethical 
one: it is entirely free software 
<http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/free-sw.html>. While the Firefox source 
code from the Mozilla project is free software, they distribute and 
recommend non-free software as plug-ins and addons. Also their trademark 
license restricts distribution in several ways incompatible with freedom
