Port Mozilla, Collect $3696

Posted by timothy on from the but-to-amiga dept.

An anonymous reader writes "The goal of the AmiZilla effort is to raise such an obscene/huge amount of money to give away to the first programmer/team that can port Mozilla to Amiga that Amiga programmers will be falling over themselves getting this application coded in record time. The booty currently stands at $3696. Parties interested in making some extra cash to pay off student loans/go on a wild bender can find more infomation here."

    I'm developing those two libraries in my spare time and it has caught the attention of quite a few people. I was awarded a stipend for a conference this year through a contact I made by writing those libraries. I'm not even in university and they awarded me a stipend!

    Beat that.
