While Firefox and Thunderbird are the poster children of open-source Internet application success, the program suite they sprang from, Mozilla, was reborn Jan. 30 under a new name: SeaMonkey.
Like the now obsolete Mozilla Application Suite, SeaMonkey 1.0 includes a Web browser and e-mail client, as well as a WYSIWYG Web page composer and a feature-rich IRC (Internet Relay Chat) client. For Web developers, it also includes Mozilla.org’s DOM (document object model) inspector and JavaScript debugger tools.
The Mozilla Foundation decided in March of last year that it would no longer develop major updates to its original application suite. Instead, the group decided to devote its attention to Firefox and Thunderbird.
