RE: Netscape 6 and DHTML

I've been trying to tell my colleagues about Netscape 6 for months.

I downloaded each PR as soon as they came out.  These have been
stable enough to start working towards compatibility since PR2.

So, for months I have been writing NN6 compatible DHTML, etc.
I'm amazed when people complain that "NN6 is out and my site
doesn't work".  We've all had more than enough time to think
about compatibility.
