The goal of the AmiZilla effort is to raise an obscene amount of money to give away to the first programmer / team that can port Firefox to Amiga OS, MorphOS, AROS & Amiga virtual machines. We believe in Amiga OS, MorphOS, AROS and want them to be successful. We also believe in the Firefox browser and have been using it for years. When the sourcecode was released in 1998 we thought for sure it would be ported to the Amiga super fast the way Doom & Quake were. Well it is 2008 and still no Netscape/Firefox on Amiga OS. So now we are willing to put our money were our mouth is and are offering over $11,000 to the lucky coder(s) that can send us even a beta of this browser for Amiga OS/MorphOS/AROS. You don't have to port the e-mail package or some of the other tools, just Firefox.

Also to increase the pot we have setup a special website & paypal e-mail account to receive donations. We have already placed $2000 dollars into this account and will keep a daily tally of any and all donations. This money will always be available to the first person/team who gets it ported. You don't have to donate to the cause but if you have a little money to spare and you want Firefox to finally be on the Amiga OS please consider helping make this dream come true. No donation is too small, even only $5 or $10 is fine if that is all you can afford. Doners will be listed on this site via thier name or handle if they want to be listed. Keep in mind programmers this effort should work on @ least Amiga OS 3.9, WinUAE, Amithlon, MorphOS, AROS, Amiga OS 4.0, etc. so everyone can benefit from the effort. We will help you beta test it of course. Please keep the dream alive.

Best regards
