“Mozilla.org has released the long-awaited “alpha” version
of its open source Web browser, dubbed M13, in a signal that the
troubled project may finally be putting some of its problems behind
it.“
“With the alpha, which is posted on Mozilla’s Web site, the
organization is expressing its confidence that the software is
stable enough to be the primary browser and mail client for members
of the development team, although it still will go through several
versions before a final release. In general, an alpha version is
not considered stable enough for the public, but Mozilla watchers
may want to give it a test spin….”
“The alpha release comes just one month after the project
reached another significant milestone with a relatively complete
trial version, M12. In addition, the group has finally had success
in reaching outside of Netscape to rally volunteers to help with
coding, bug hunting and other tasks.”
