A Browser By Any Other Name…
The browser formerly known as Chimera for OS X has been renamed “Camino” and now has a “new webpage”:http://www.mozilla.org/projects/camino/! Don’t go looking for downloads yet, however, because the new version isn’t available yet. However, I’ve heard that 0.7 is basically complete, they just need to finish going through and replacing every instance of Chimera with Camino. This means 0.7 should be available really soon now. An annoying setback for a project like this, but an unfortunate reality.
As to the name, some people are afraid that it brings to mind images of 70′s era half-car/half-pickup monstrosities, but I find the name perfectly acceptable. It means “path” or “road” in Spanish, and seems to be rather appropriate. And besides, I don’t care what its called, as long as it continues to bring forth all that delicious browser goodness that it has already brought me.
