Mozilla’s first public release

In honor of Firefox 3.0 download day, Waxy.org has posted the full Code Rush documentary. It spans March ‘98 to April ‘99, as the Mozilla team publishes the first source code and then the eventual AOL acquisition of Netscape. Embedded above is a short clip of [Jamie Zawinski] pushing the code live at 10AM on March 31, 1998. The hour documentary is well worth watching.

If you’re unsure about moving from FF2 to 3, MultiFireFox still works perfectly fine with the new release.
