Netscape won't be making any money out of a FreeBSD browser so it will never be supported by them. And now that mozilla.org has been formed, it's up to FreeBSD people to contribute to that. Any negative mail you choose to send to either Netscape or mozilla.org will undermine other (private) mail in the last week trying to improve the communication with FreeBSD.org. I can understand the emotion that people have, but I wish you would all cool down before you give outsiders the impression that we're all so hot headed and intolerant. -- John Birrell - jb@cimlogic.com.au; jb@freebsd.org http://www.cimlogic.com.au/ CIMlogic Pty Ltd, GPO Box 117A, Melbourne Vic 3001, Australia +61 418 353 137 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
