Life After Netscape For Mozilla Developers

Posted by timothy on from the life-goes-on dept.

An anonymous reader submits "MozillaZine has an article up on life after Netscape for Mozilla developers formerly employed there. Several developers are now employed by the non-profit Mozilla Foundation in full or part-time positions, others have been hired by IBM and Daniel Glazman was contracted by Lindows to write web publishing application Nvu. Another group of developers have joined together to form Mozilla Consulting to work on customized Mozilla enhancements. The amount of interest by non-Netscape companies in Mozilla is surely a positive sign for the future of the project."

    Just because IBM hired Daniel Glazman doesn't mean they have any interest in Mozilla


    Daniel Glazman isn't hired by IBM, he actually runs his own company, that's contracted to work on various enhancements to Mozilla Composer, including Nvu, funded by Lindows.com

    AOL isn't leeching. First of all, they are donating $2 million to the Mozilla Foundation. Second, they donated a while shitload of hardware to the Mozilla Foundation. Third, they don't even make the branded version of Mozilla (Netscape) anymore.
