Portable Flock

According to wikipedia:

Flock is a web browser built on Mozilla’s Firefox codebase. Flock integrates various blog, news aggregation, and social networking sites including Facebook, YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, Blogger, and others. When users log in to any of the 15 supported social services, the browser asks them if it should remember their account. If a user does so, Flock will announce when friends have uploaded photos or published other items. The browser claims to "allow easy media sharing via drag and drop, easy photo uploading, and a built-in blog editor for easy posting from anywhere on the web."

Read this, too. Seems there's some disputes over licencing...

This is only part of the discussion. Here's a link.

A summery is that not all is as open source for Flock as we may wish it to be.

Otherwise, I'd be intrested in seeing this done, too. Or at least a launcher.

I'm pretty sure that, while Flock was originally GPLed, it now includes closed source components. As it is based on Firefox code which is tri-licensed (MPL, GPL, LGPL), they could, under the MPL, combine Firefox code with closed components and release it without releasing the full source. The EULA seems to state that it includes closed source code.

If that's the case then it's a shame as I have a completely working Flock-branded launcher that I had permission from the Flock team to release with their trademarks intact.

.. but not here.

I found a portable launcher based on Johns Firefox portable which I believe was Flock version 0.7. It has however upgraded itself to the latest version (in the same way Firefox does) without any problems.

I dont use it that often, maybe open it up a few times a week. Its no replacement for Firefox, but what it does it does pretty well. If the new GMail and Yahoo! mail interfaces are as slick as some of their others I may use it more.

It could certainly do with Johns magic (Firefox) touch, so I hope it can be done here at some point.
