Frank Hecker says Eric Hahn was the person most responable for Netscape freeing their browser: http://www.openoffice.org/editorial/ec1May.html Of the CatB paper, he says: "In my opinion the paper's importance in the context of Netscape's decision was mainly that it provided some independent validation of ideas that were already being actively discussed and promoted within Netscape." A decision maker from Netscape (possibly Hecker), also made similar comments in the Revolution OS documentary, along the lines that CatB was a factor, but by no means the main factor. -- Ciarán O'Riordan __________________ \ Support Free Software and GNU/Linux http://ciaran.compsoc.com/ _________ \ Join FSFE's Fellowship: http://fsfe.org/fellows/ciaran/weblog \ http://www.fsfe.org _______________________________________________ Fsfe-uk mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fsfe-uk
