I don’t believe they do. I’m pretty sure since its a soft fork and still has firefox as an upstream, that they would need the permission of any contributor that had agreed to the MPL license, and that would include the Mozilla project, and it’s very unlikely that Mozilla would agree to that.
I don’t see how not, but I’m not a lawyer. From my perspective only Waterfox’s edits would actually be GPL anyway, since they don’t own copyright to Mozilla. If they wanted to integrate their work upstream that would be an issue
Since it’s Firefox based, do they even have the option to release their software with GPL components?
