Well, I have the most recent version of Enhanced Mosaic 2.0 in front of me right now.  IT STINKS.

It's performance is poor, its interface is below-average, and functionality is no-where close to NCSA or Netscape.

If they are truly using NCSA, then where is it.  It is surely no where to be found in their product.  And, Spyglass certainly is not paying the salaries of the 4 full-time developers at NCSA.  If they do take that code, it will be a wonderful government subsidy to Spyglass.  Are you sure the agreement covers future NCSA releases?  As I recall, the PR was that **SPYGLASS** would be giving BACK to NCSA because they would be so great and innovative, etc.  What a farce.

Will NCSA bail-out Spyglass, so to speak?
