“The official Netscape Blog has announced that Netscape 9 is
under development. Like the current Netscape Browser 8, this
release will presumably be based on Mozilla Firefox. According to
the announcement, Netscape 9 will be a standalone browser (lacking
components like a mail client or Web page editor) and will have
tight integration with the Netscape.com website, which was
relaunched as a Digg-style user-driven news and current events

be released simultaneously for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.

Unofficial FAQ by Netscape Champion Jay Garcia, who is in a
position to know about Netscape’s browser plans…”
