Hmmm let's see.

Several mb of rather untidy code, reliying on an alien GUI-set, and functionality not available
in AmigaOS (like the infamous fork()) in exchange for a few thousand $ ?

Yeah, I can see people lining up for that ....... NOT.

My advice:
Check if it really has to be Mozilla, or if a KHMTL based approach wouldn't be better.

Set up a road map, with how it should be achieved, and split it into parts suitable for single
coders with each of them a fixed part of the pot attached to it.
1. Make an announcment.
2. Wait a while.
3. Check if it can actually be done.
4. Wait for someone else to do it.
5. Start working on it while giving out hillarious progress-reports.
6. Deny that you have ever announced it
7. Blame someone else

/me hasn't read it that way.

And I also didn't mean mine as such ....

Just my nice way to make it connect with the hard realities in this community, and
even suggesting a more workable way.
