due diligence

The Chimera/Camino team keeps griping about the name change and how it was forced upon them “for reasons beyond their control.” Perhaps the fact that there has been a browser called Chimera for quite some time (it’s at version 2.0) was a big reason.

About:
Chimera is a very small and nimble Web/gopher browser created using athena widgets. The original (1.x series) version has very restricted copyright (University of Ilinnois). The 2.0beta release is available under the GNU Public License. Chimera is capable of HTML 3.2, displaying a lot of graphics, and is very accurate about HTML syntax. Future releases may include security updates, bugfixes, and feature changes (e.g. gtk support, frames support, etc.).

This is why corporations have lawyers: to prevent engineers from making business decision w/o adult supervision. A simple Google search would have averted all this whining.

Here’s a Chimera screenshot.
