AOL support Open Source

AOL gaat door met de Open Source ontwikkelingen voor Mozilla, aldus Techweb:

t may only be an encouraging word to a potential soon-to-be-employee, but AOL chief Steve Case has sent word to Mozilla.org that AOL will continue to support its open source browser efforts.

In an e-mail dated last Wednesday to Mozilla.org technical lead Jamie Zawinski, Case writes: "We're very supportive of Mozilla.org; indeed, we're hopeful that our involvement might rally even more support among developers in the open source community."

Case's e-mail added, "We certainly realize that platform innovation comes from the work of thousands of passionate developers, and we share your view that the agenda of Mozilla is and should be set by those who contribute to it. We will contribute too -- in part, by maintaining the autonomy of Mozilla.org."
