I'd like to point out that the mozilla project (http://www.mozilla.org/)
is still going strong. Even if netscape drops its official support, its an
open source project, with most of the developers being non-netscape
affiliated. So the Unix community will probably continue supporting what,
in my opinion, is the most stable, standards-compliant, and fast-rendering
browser available.
