Firefox coming to OS4.1 !!!

OMG !!!WOW ..fresh off the press from Amigaworld...hows about a donate button on the front page for this one

"Project Timberwolf


Finally the port of one of the most wanted software for
AmigaOS 4.1 has been tackled! The well known AmigaOS developers
Hans-Joerg Frieden and Thomas Frieden work already since
quite some time on a fully AmigaOS native port of Mozillas'
Firefox webbrowser!

Because of the unrealistic terms and conditions of the AmiZilla
bounty, it was decided to start a new bounty only for AmigaOS 4.1
and beyond. Thus this bounty is in no way related to AmiZilla.

Timberwolf is the project name of the AmigaOS port of the Firefox web
browser (for legal reasons it cannot be called Firefox). Firefox is an
award-winning open source web browser and is the de-facto-standard
browser across a wide variety of operating system, taking second place
in popularity after Microsoft' s Internet Explorer. Its features include
tabbed browsing, support for HTML 5, ECMAScript 3.1, and CSS 3,
extensibility through addons, and a lot more. In short, Firefox is the
most complete open source browser to date.

- Something to show.
- Great programmers and amiga community

Plugins from firefox/Timberwolf will work also ????

Aaaaaaaahhhhhh! This is VERY good news,and i really think the friedens will get this one thorugh. I will surely donate to this one. So should everyone else too.

Firefox !!!

Even better, this is NOT Hyperion's "most ambitious project".

OWB for the people

@Kicko

Speaking of OWB...maybe thats the reason why joerg suddenly stopped (or so it seems) working on OWB...
...maybe he joined the Timberwolf project?

@Friedens

Is there a time of day you guys actually sleep?

@thread

OMFG

Looking at running numbers on AmigaBounty...there seem to be some demand for a Firefox port

Actually he seems to have disappeared completely.

@Chris

should be a wolf though :P

@Chris

That would be a nightmare, losing another one of the high talented coders

I suspected him to be on holidays over the summer, but now... time is passing and not a single word from him on any of the forums i know he's on for a long time now.

I really hope he's not gone completely

@Alkaron

Cool

Make him grey/dark grey going to white/white gray at his tail and make his snout bigger, then you's have a perfect wolf

@Alkaron

I love it

Something like this:



:P

@Troels
I don't know, I haven't emailed him recently and he always takes ages to respond to personal emails anyway. I haven't seen any posts from him on any forum, or any emails on mailing lists, pretty much since the most recent OWB release. Last login here was on the 2nd of August.

@Raziel
Agreed. I hope he's ok.

Chris

Congratulations ! hope to see it in action as soon as possible
