A former Netscape Executive (wants to remain anonymous for now) just gave the AmiZilla project a $2000 boost. He is a long time Amiga user and still uses WinUAE and the Video Toaster Flyer a lot. He contacted me and wanted to match the $2000 I used to start the AmiZilla Project. www.amizilla.org

In reply to Comment 22 (Joe "Floid" Kanowitz):
Peter Gordon said; "These funds should also be made available for the first person/team to get a browser with GOOD support for DHTML, XHTML, CSS, and a current version of Flash!

Flash... People, let's face it, good flash support will never come to Amiga, at least not in the foreseeable future. Macromedia will never do it, and 3rd party libs are simply useless or not good enough. There is not even good Flash support for PowerPC Linux, just because Macromedia only releases their closed-source libs for x86... Even the OS/2 version of Flash 7 is ready, but can't be released for months, (it was done by Innotek, a german company specialised for Win32->OS/2 portings) because Macromedia is refused to allow an official release based on their code.

This happens when such closed source sh*t becomes defacto standard... So in fact, when i'm saying Amiga doesn't support Flash, i think it's an advantage!

I think, according to the community's current possibilities, HTML4 and CSS2 support should be enough in an updated version of AWeb and/or IBrowse.
