Netscape Navigator 9
Template:Future software Netscape confirmed on 23 January 2007 that Netscape Browser versions 8.0-8.1.2 would be superseded by a new stand-alone browser release, Netscape 9. Its features are said to include newsfeed support and become more integrated with the Netscape.com internet portal [1], alongside more enhanced methods of discussion, submission and voting on web pages [2]. It will also see the browser return to multi-platform support across Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. [3] Like Netscape version 8.x, the new release will be based upon the popular Mozilla Firefox (version 2.0), and is expected to have full support of all Firefox add-ons and plugins, some of which Netscape is already providing.[4]. Also for the first time since 2004, the browser has been produced in-house with its own programming staff. [5]
On 10 April 2007, Netscape released a theme plugin for related browser, Mozilla Firefox, mimicing the final user interface of the final program. [6]
