When I discussed this with marcus, he made the same point. My response is that the shorter name is easier to work with, that it distinguishes the program from Mozilla, and that its authors use just "Firefox" in the name of the distfile and (predominantly) in the program's home pages, and . The reason for the new name was to avoid confusion with the Firebird database, which is also in the ports collection. There's no other program called Firefox that's been ported, so there's no need for a "mozilla-" to distinguish this one from that other, nonexistent, program. I haven't asked Aaron Voisine (CC'd), but I'm hoping the various linux-mozillafirebird ports can become linux-firefox ports. Joe Marcus Clarke has gotten ports/mail/mozilla-thunderbird repo-copied to ports/mail/thunderbird. The only other ports named mozilla-foo are actual Mozilla ports. -- Trevor Johnson
