190348 2003-11-09 10:08:00 As has been mentioned many times here before and also around the Mozilla website. There were issues with the name Phoenix because that is kind of the same name as a BIOS writer. -=JM=- (16)
190349 2003-11-09 10:32:00 They basically came across copyright issues IIRC and have decided to change the name to MozillaFirebird with the 0.6 release.

We're now upto 0.7xx so its been like this for a while :-)
Still same browser (With improvements since 0.5 obviously!) just a different name!

190352 2003-11-10 09:08:00 I don't understand why people use Phoneix or Firebird.

The Original Mozilla is the best - best features etc

And so at last the beast fell and the unbelievers rejoiced. But all was not lost, for from the ash rose a great bird. The bird gazed down upon the unbelievers and cast fire and thunder upon them. For the beast had been reborn with its strength renewed, and the followers of Mammon cowered in horror.
