RE: Netscape is Dead From Erik, via Doug.

AOL has cut or will cut the remaining team working on Mozilla in a mass firing and are dismantling what was left of Netscape (they've even pulled the logos off the buildings). [MozillaZine]

The good news is they've started the Mozilla Foundation:

The Mozilla Foundation is a new non-profit organization that will serve as the home for mozilla.org.  As before, mozilla.org will coordinate and encourage the development and testing of Mozilla code.  The Mozilla Foundation will also promote the distribution and adoption of our flagship applications based on that code. AOL, Sun Microsystems, Red Hat, and other companies will continue to support Mozilla through the Foundation.

What this means for the Mozilla browser and our other products and technologies: more innovation from the open source developers, and a greater focus on end users.

Read the press release and our newsgroup announcement.

I dig the new look for mozilla.org, nice work Ben! Posted in The Web at Jul 15 2003, 07:33:50 PM MDT Add a Comment
