No. There is no Politburo. Mozilla is not a government. It is an organization
that creates software. And no, Netscape and Mozilla are not one and the same.
It's just not true. At this point, if you refuse to accept that, then you are no
longer holding an opinion in absence of fact, you are holding an opinion in
willful ignorance of fact.

IBM is doing the whole BiDi section. Intel contributed the cache code a while
ago. RedHat has a full time employee doing NOTHING but Mozilla work (not bad for
a company that can't show a profit). There's contributors also working for
Nokia, Cisco (IIRC), and more. The following link is some rough stats on non-NS
contributors ONLY.

AOL isn't. I have yet to see AOL exert ANY pressure on the Mozilla organization.
Sure, you can see AOL's influences in Netscape, but again, Mozilla is not
Netscape.
