All source is public and has been forever. Well, since the first patches
left some individual developer's computer, I guess. Additionally, the first
drafts of the the Australis design were public before Chrome adopted a lot
of the ideas in them. So to some extent, it's actually the other way
around. Searching on our wiki, through
bugzilla.mozilla.org, and through
people's blog posts over the years, you can piece together all that history.

(For the casual reader, let me point out that that "other Topic" was in
fact posted by the same person as this one. The same person who wrote the

You still haven't explained why we would do that. What would be our gain?
Wouldn't we cut off all sources of revenue that way? Also, can you point me
to the source of your knowledge that we "so Close working with Google"?

Note that some of the most active core developers of SeaMonkey are Mozilla
employees. You might want to switch to something else entirely.
