I ran a Diff on it my self. However, I am not sure if Moonchild wants this published change for change. Of course being open source the source is available to everyone to run their one diff on. But while he will im sure appeciate the effort. I am not so sure of his responce to a change by change.

It's Open Source. Publishing parts of the source tree is not a problem, but do keep in mind that the graphics files carrying the Pale Moon logo as part of the source are protected by copyright and you have to comply with the MPL source publication requirement, meaning include a LICENSE file or similar outlining the terms under which the partial source files are distributed (also including a statement that it does not include the right to use the Pale Moon name or logo).

If you want to publish, make sure you satisfy all requirements for distribution of the source and any part thereof. Open Source does not equal Public Domain. People have to realize that. Since you don't satisfy those requirements in your zip, please take them down. Feel free to re-publish once you comply with the licensing terms for the source :)

Sorry to be an ass about it, if that's what you think, but those are the rules laid down for the source code.
