[quote="Stephan Sokolow"][quote="Jota.Ce"]So Mozilla is acting like a big company, giving some servers as charity, but taking its own decisions in favor of a bunch of selected projects and forgetting where they came from. Sorry for this offtopic and my uneducated answer, but i'm losing my faith on opensource community, after seeing so many conflicts between people there (Suxbuntu, MAME,...). It's like people can't live in peace and harmony, helping each others and working for a commnon benefit. Anyway, i read you since some years ago and i keep on wishing you luck in your personal case ;) I stop the offtopic now, and won't talk about this. Sorry again.[/quote] That's a very unfair characterization of the relationship between Mozilla and SeaMonkey. Not even a huge, rich company like Google can afford to throw money at every project. Mozilla definitely doesn't have the resources to. Mozilla had a big, heavy, "everything but the kitchen sink" application and felt they needed to fix that. When they released what was essentially "Mozilla Browser 2.0", some other people decided they liked the old version better and stepped up to maintain it. It's not "forgetting where they came from". From the Mozilla perspective, it's more like Ford donating some resources to a "modern-day Model-T" enthusiast club while they push forward on designs like the Focus, Mustang, and Taurus. They have NO obligation to do anything with designs they consider obsolete. (And, trust me, I fully agree that some of their new designs are stupid like removing the RSS icon from the location bar. Doesn't change the facts though.) To avoid restarting things, this will be my only post on the topic.[/quote]
