I don't mean to argumentative here, but this statement is way off base. Moz will be skinned/branded but it will also be used by many people who want the most cutting-edge browser around! (D'oh!) Think: geeks, gamers, web developers (!!!) and the list goes on. > Designed? Intended. Wishfully thought, maybe. You could file a bug to have > the help file removed on these grounds ... Exactly. The whole idea is that the end user of Mozilla is going to exist and while the help file need not be huge, it does need to at least be skeletal. We need at the very least to cover the common functionality that won't be changed by the skinners. ~Mike
