As of today (March 31st) the source can be downloaded from the various mirror sites Netscape has arranged at: http://www.mozilla.org/ Springing to life too are the various efforts to port this source to OS/2. The "Warpscape" team, organized by the OS/2 Netlabs, updated their page today with news on their plans: http://www.netlabs.org/warpscape/ Online discussion is also taking place on Efnet IRC in the channel #warpscape. The second effort, headed by Bill Law of Netscape, called "Warpzilla" has yet to update their pages as of writing, but seem just as eager to get moving as everyone else: http://people.netscape.com/law/warpzilla/index.html As of yet, no timeframe estimates have been given for a native, grass-roots ported version of Communicator 5 from either group. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe, unsubscribe, or for more information on WarpCast, visit: http://www.warpcast.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
