Here's how the current Mozilla Seamonkey roadmap looks . . .



Make of that what you will. One thing I can say is that Mozilla release dates are never
really "set in stone". They do have "ideal release dates", but also an often mentioned,
but effectively unofficial release policy . . . "It'll be released, when it's ready!"

SeaMonkey = Swiss Army Knife: It's versatile, reliable, and contains useful tools.
Windows Internet Explorer = Old Swiss Cheese: Full of holes, and it stinks!

The only time I tried Firefox, it contained the old Phoenix throbber. Has it been changed to the Firefox logo (which looks much better, IMHO)?

The default skin still has the same throbber it did as Firebird. Ton's of skins though! Each one seems to have a different throbber. I personally like iCandy Junior.

As Bryan said, the release date seems to be 7.02.

They say NN 7.2 will be bundled with this thing. Razz


As mentioned before as Netscape's development might cease, what are the chances that Desktop Navigator might be its new form?

Some of the newer Nightly Builds of Firefox have a new theme and throbber. The theme and throbber is similar to the one in Thunderburd 0.6.

Yet another article about 7.2

http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1601753,00.asp

Sounds like it's still anticipated for early summer, but will probably just be a rebadged Mozilla 1.7 (which is what most of you have thought).

Now that I look at it, Desktop Navigator reminds me a whole lot of Netcaster.

I'm using mozilla 1.7 I just got it the last week. Mozilla is my main browsing buddy now. Smile

It's much more stable than IE will ever be IMO. No so many popups for one thing. I was constantly fighting back popups when using IE but this has it's own popup blocker and ad blocker.

As of tomorrow, if Netscape 7.2 is not released then the newest Netscape browser will be 1 year old... And for Netscape, that's quite old.

Even with it's age it's still my favorite browser. It has NEVER crashed on me or had a corrupted profile. The infamous "resource leak" and downloader issues have never plagued my XP system. It's fast on DSL. I love the email client as well(I have two Netscape webmail accounts). I have never had an issue with it in any area! If 7.2 is better (which it should be) I don't know how I'll contain myself! Smile
