Over the past couple of days, I've had to answer several questions in
multiple places because of the lack of a single email source for spreading
this information. I'm going to try to fix that a little now, to make not
only my life easier, but yours.

Mozilla is going to be the default browser for Unix/Athena Any Minute Now.
(Theresa is the person who gets final say on when it happens.) There are a
couple of outstanding issues, but the browser is in pretty good shape and
I'm reasonably happy with it.

If you didn't know yet that we were springing Mozilla on the world, you do
now. Please send along any comments, complaints, concerns, et cetera.

If you haven't given Mozilla a try - the official copy in the infoagents
locker, not the various unsupported versions floating around - now is an
excellent time to do so:

    add infoagents
    mozilla

Any testing/feedback you can provide is always appreciated.

I have created a page which contains not only my current "to-do" list,
with status of fixes that have been made or will be made, but also will
contain some detailed documents about particular problem areas, to help
people like Heather or Oliver or Carol cope with having to explain those
problems to other people.

Alas, I lost most of this afternoon making Mozilla do things with the
cache it was never designed to do, so only the supplemental page on
certificates is ready. The ones on mail settings (Heather, I have a
step-by-step for you), general preferences stuff, and multiple
instances/remote operations are not ready yet - but I have notes waiting
to type, and they should be up sometime tomorrow.

http://web.mit.edu/tbelton/www/mozilla

Note this URL. I may refer you to it in the future if you ask me a
question I think is already answered there.

My main www directory has a link to the page too, just in case that's
easier to remember.
