Jazilla Milestone 1 Released

mcbridematt writes "Many of the long time Slashdot readers will remember the Jazilla project to rewrite the Mozilla browser in Java. It went into hibernation in 2000 and I took it over last August. I have completely rewrote the browser which now follows a more Mozilla-like architecture. The Result: Jazilla Milestone 1 has been released. Download it from here. No prizes for guessing that it's Alpha software." Read on below for a list of what Jazilla can do, so far.

"Significant (implemented) features include:

  • chrome:// support
  • JavaScript implemented for the GUI thanks to the Mozilla.org Rhino engine. HTML Scripting coming.
  • GUI in part, uses XUL and W3C DOM
  • Written in 100% Java
  • Open Source
  • Uses the NetBrowser renderer, which is actually based on Jazilla-classic work."
