Ahh!! A name! Great!  I've been mailing all the addresses I could find
at Netscape asking who to send FreeBSD bug reports to. So far no-one
has been able to point me in the right direction (although I was warned
by one kind sole at Netscape that "BSD is not for free" and I should
not be pirating software and mailing them to complain! Wow.) FWIW, even
when I was a DevEdge member for 2 years, getting feedback from Netscape
about a bug report I sent in never happened. They just seemed to get 
sucked into a great void, whether or not anybody ever read them I never
know (there was even a huge flame like uproar on the Netscape private
developers newgroups at the time about the lack of response..).

I'll see if I can track down Chris McAffee's email address and send all
my bitching and complaing to him.  ;-)
