If you read what I said, the criteria for finished is usually
'downloadable from netscape.com' (and billed as a released product, not
a beta). 6.0 was downloadable from netscape.com. I'll bet you can put
2 and 2 together. Of course, the need to ship *something* also played
into the decision to 6.0. You seem to enjoy dwelling on past mistakes.
6.1 was a successful product, and it will continue to be going forward.
