Internet & Networking The browser wars have really been heating up again lately.

A new browser project called RockMelt is in development - and it's backed by Mosaic developer and Netscape founder Marc Andreessen.

Netscape was a re-implementation from scratch; the code was not based on the Mosaic code (Netscape didn't have the rights to it). Certainly from an idea perspective Netscape was based on the experience with Mosaic.
