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.

That's not out of the question, for evidence that there was going to be Opera for Amiga at one stage look here:

Opera newsgroups

There is also a thread in the forums section (Support->Forums) calling for it on AmigaOS4.0. As people say though, it wouldn't be high on the list of platforms.

I thought the problem with Mozilla for AOS was that it was designed around threaded operation and partly due to the fact that an open source option would have hurt the competition at the time it was 1st mentioned? I think AOS sorely needs a browser that supports at least CSS1!
