As the webmaster of a Scouting Web Site (http://www.pack4gardner.org) and a Firefox user and promoter, it’s neat to see something like this. The problem is, to have your website meet the standards set by the BSA, it would be impossible to earn this award. A Scouting site may not have links to non-BSA related sites. I can’t see how promoting Firefox without a link to either the site or the download would be possible. Nice thought though!!
