To answer your question, "who is making it?" - the open source

Hope that helps,

Yeah, it does.  Thanks.  So what that probably means is that within a
year or so we'll have a version of mozilla that ultra-geeks know and
love, maybe within 5 years we'll get some media hype, then we'll see
normal people move over to it, some of which will stay, most of which
will discover it is cool but Windows/IE just plain does more?  :)

Seriously, though, I have no real browser loyalty.  I'm using Opera
3.62 extensively right now.  I think if I could get over some quirks
it has I'd use it more.
