h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

First of all, since this article was written, the project has moved on a lot, and is now approaching 1.0 - the current build is referred to as "Release Candidate 1", and is a perfectly acceptable browser and probably considerably more "finished" than the average Micros**t product, since a very large number of people are working to find and correct bugs all the time. Consequently, many of the "should" features mentioned are now implemented - skins, for instance, work fine.
Secondly, an omission: you nowhere link to either mozilla.org or netscape.com, which seems rather odd.
And finally, I'm not sure of the accuracy of Mosaic *becoming* Netscape - I rather gathered it was more "spun off from": as mentioned on another thread, IE also directly credits "NCSA Mosaic" as the basis of the product. I always assumed this was public domain research (in fact, I think you're *not allowed* to directly sell software developed in American Universities). On the other hand, I haven't actually researched the subject so what do I know?
A good entry, but rather badly in need of an update, methinks.
