Re: [GNU-linux-libre] review PureOS ISO

[Ivan Zaigralin]

For all the criticism I leveled against Icecat in the last year, I am in fact 
using it as my primary browser, and we include it in FreeSlack as the Firefox 
replacement. It is not perfect, but is certainly is a viable solution, for 
users as well as for distro maintainers.

Nice to hear others are coming along... I really want to start experimenting 
with providing light-weight, and especially javascript-free options.
