Any thoughts of maintaining the Netscape stuff as separate "Communicator" and "Navigator" ports instead of either/or?

I've not been able to recommend Netscape4 to large customers as long as it had all the workgroup stuff. > On Sun, 7 Sep 1997, Chuck Robey wrote: > > > On Sun, 7 Sep 1997, Andrey A.
