Hi,

   Er, a neat little thing happened a few years ago, it was called 
releasing the source, and it was done by Netscape.  The branch that 
Netscape 6.1 rtm is based off of is hardly a secret.  In fact, 
everything RV stated was correct.  Netscape 6.1 is based off the 0.9.2 
branch, but many fixes that went onto the trunk (and thus 0.9.3) were 
put on the branch as well.  Don't bother responding to people if you're 
just going to drop hints about being under NDA.  This isn't a popularity 
contest.

Thanks,

  - Blake Ross
