Do I read your (2) correctly that Firefox (I realize it was not named that originally) began inside Netscape (when it was a division of AOL)?
Was it open-source licensed at the same time the flagship Netscape/Mozilla browser was?
Yes, of course -- Hyatt and Blake both worked for Netscape. What misled you into thinking Firefox started as some outside-Netscape project?
All the code was MPL'ed.

Something I read many years ago, maybe a comment here on this site. I appreciate the correction.
