Jumping the gun here /. style, but what the heck :)
Looks like NS6.2 has been released, although not publicized yet,
http://home.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/ns62/relnotes/62.html
It appears to be based on a nightly mozilla build from last week as the
about: link shows Gecko/20011019 Netscape6/6.2
Using it now, *totally* faster than moz.9.5 in page rendering, new
window creation, and startup times(with quick launch enabled). I know we
say that everytime a new mozilla/ns release rolls, but it is true :)
Also, mail&news is *very* snappy and responsive for IMAP
I'm not saying this is an official netscape 6.2 release or anything, but
they like to upload new releases to the FTP servers a couple days in
advance most of the time. You can find it on the NS FTP site at
ftp://ftp.netscape.com/pub/netscape6/english/6.2/
or I've uploaded the win, mac, linux, and osx *full* install versions to
http://browsers.evolt.org/index.cfm/dir/navigator/ feel free to download
and play with.. have fun :)
