OTOH the navigator is unimportant, there's no money there anymore. I think someone should open netscape's eyes to the bazillion bucks they are loosing by not reselling an enhanced version of FreeBSD with their server and all the other products. They need a platform they can exploit commercially and GNU-Linsux can't give them all we can. There's much to win in FreeBSD and the risk is really low. My $0.02 Pedro.
