MEMBERS
- As a valued DevEdge Gold member, we're making an early build of Preview Release 2 of Netscape Communicator
available. We're providing you another opportunity to preview
Communicator to assist you in your development planning efforts for the
new feature set.
This is an early release of the public PREVIEW RELEASE which means
it is not feature complete or fully functional. On most platforms, the
mail and discussion group functionality is more functional than the
web browsing and developer/API extensions. Please use the product accordingly.
Future releases will have more features implemented and will be more appropriate
for product testing. The release notes are currently being updated and
will be available soon, so please continue checking the Netscape Web site
for the latest information.
