GBrowser is getting closer?
It seems like Firefox project’s leader has been hired by Google a few weeks ago. He is still devoted to the same project. The only difference is that his paycheck now comes from Google. Is Google trying to take over the Mozilla Foundation now that Netscape has left it behind? The news came out a few months ago that google had registered the gbrowser.com domain name. A simple WHOIS will confirm this (some parts have been stripped).

If Google can drive most IE users away to a gecko based browser, I would be a happy developper.
