Netscape 7 coming
Well, looks like Netscape 6 will have one of the shortest shelf lives of any recent browser (Netscape 4.x, released in 1997, is still kicking): version 7 is now in pre-release. This appears to be based on Mozilla 1.0 RC2.
Seems Netscape is trying to escape the marketing bomb that was Netscape 6.0—but developers are already complaining, with justification, that the release doesn't warrant a new full version number. Most people were expecting this browser to be Netscape 6.5.
Rachel Ross, an old colleague of mine (years ago we brought the Ryerson Review of Journalism online) had an excellent piece about sexism in the science and technology industries in Monday’s Star. A must read.
