I was the one who started the mozamiga.mozdev.org thingy - I mistakenly thought that I could rally some Amiga coders to get together and bang out a DE port. At the time, Amiga OS 4 really wasn't even heard of. Now, I'd recommend an OS 4 native port of Chimera, because Amiga Inc. has changed their tune. I suppose I could update mozdev to this effect, but it just seems that no Amiga coders give enough of a rat's ass to actually spend some time on this project.

If anyone wants to take over the mozdev thing, let me know. I'm not a coder, and it would probably help if the project owner was an active coder.

Please keep your sarcastic comments to yourself. Project managers don't necessarily need to be coders, and I was just trying to A) rally Amiga and Mozilla fans to the cause and B) create a center for the project.

Please do. I just want to see the project take off, that's all. That was my original intent, and it's still what I want. Mozdev offers CVS and a mailing list, not to mention a bug system, and I think it would be the perfect place for the project.

I wouldn't pay for a browser. The concept, to me, is ludicrous. If we could get just A COUPLE Amiga developers to port Chimera, we wouldn't have to pay money for a Web browser. I think Opera is a joke; anyone who thinks that people will pay for a Web browser in today's market needs to go out of business pronto.
