Comment(by greenfeld):

 Mozila's main targeted user group is not necessarily K-12 (except maybe on
 the higher end).

 The question really is how concerned OLPC is about avoiding a "Hot Coffee"
 (Rockstar games) sort-of-scenario.  I agree though that building and
 maintaining our own Mozilla/Firefox tree just for this likely is
 excessive.

 If we believe that there is no harm if a student of any grade level
 discovers about:mozilla in a country where English is not well spoken
 (risking misinterpretation of poetic English), then there likely is no
 need to fix it.  But if a third grader starts asking their teacher what
 "sacrifice" means in the wrong country and the teacher notices the comment
 about fires, we might hear a request to hide the page in the future at the
 bare minimum.


 I was more wondering if it was possible to intercept the request in Browse
 at the Sugar level before it hit Firefox (presuming Mozilla found that
 acceptable, and not modifying their product).  But if we do not see this
 as a significant risk from a PR standpoint, we likely can let it sit as-
 is.
