That's a problem that's going to have to be handled at some point or 
another. If, by some unfortunate circumstance the company dies, the 
browser will go with it. One compromise to this entire problem would be 
to charge for the source code/compiled binaries. Since they sell a 
service that comes with the product, in this case Freedombox, they 
should consider that once their revenue stream becomes stable. The 
problem I described earlier of someone else releasing the product under 
a different name, can somehow be worked out.
