New Netscape Browser Prototype Available

Posted by Hemos on Monday January 17, 2005 @05:03AM from the joining-us-here-in-the-present dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Mozillazine.org writes, "AOL has released a new prototype of Netscape Browser. This new version is almost identical to the first prototype but it's based on Mozilla Firefox 1.0 rather than 0.9.3. The browser does not contain the proposed new design concept or any new features, though there are some performance improvements. As before, only registered testers can download the prototype from community.netscape.com/nscpbrowser. MozillaZine ran an in-depth preview of the first prototype.""

Netscape = AOL
Mozilla = Mozilla & contributors

Hey, if the AOL browser comes up with anything cool, it goes straight back into Firefox, right?

Not necessarily. Moz is licensed under the MPL, which is very BSD-like.
