SeaMonkey 2.0 - The Modern Internet Suite is Here!

Tue Oct 27 10:34:20 UTC 2009

The SeaMonkey project at Mozilla is excited to release its completely
refurbished next generation of the all-in one Internet suite today:
SeaMonkey 2.0, now available for free download from the
seamonkey-project.org website, melds the ideas behind Netscape
Communicator with the modern platform of Firefox 3.5 to create one of the
most compelling open source products for advanced Internet users.

The combination of an Internet browser, email &amp; newsgroup client, HTML
editor, IRC chat and web development tools, that has already established a
wide user base in its previous incarnations, has been rebuilt on top of
the modern Mozilla platform, featuring world-class add-on management among
other things. In addition, it has been improved with feed support
(including an RSS and Atom feed reader in the mail component), a modern
look, restoration of browser tabs and windows after crashes or restarts,
tabbed mail, automated updates, smart history search from the location
bar, faster JavaScript, HTML5 features (for example video and downloadable
fonts), and even support for the Lightning calendar add-on (which will
issue a beta for installation on SeaMonkey 2.0 in the next few weeks).

The release notes feature more in-depth lists of the improvements and
known issues with the new version as well as installation requirements and
instructions. Find even more information on SeaMonkey 2.0 and the
