If you had taken a look to /usr/share/doc/iceweasel/copyright you would
have seen upstream for debian's iceweasel is mozilla, not gnuzilla.

Anyways, like all debian packages, you can apt-get source <package-name>
if you have the appropriate deb-src lines in your /etc/apt/sources.list
file. (You can duplicate the deb lines and replace deb with deb-src)

For the gnuzilla people: I'm sorry not to have taken time yet to start
discussion about working together. To start with this, I would need a
rationale behind the several patches you applied on your iceweasel,
because I'm afraid most of them (especially the ones that make it hard
to get an iceweasel 2.x, if I got the story correctly) actually look
pretty much useless to me.

Cheers,

Mike
