Is it a true fork, or is it a project that follows the Firefox tree and builds a customized browser from it?

The difference being, if it's a true fork, they have to do all their own browser engineering starting at the time it was forked off. That sounds like a monumental effort.

Strange, because they say it's a "custom version" of Firefox. That normally means it's a custom build, not a true fork.
