Multiple since it makes it easy to run multiple accounts. I'm liking the current generation of sea monkey (although it does tend to try and claim wikipedia isn't a word). And of course I'm hearing good things about opera although my version is hopelessly outdated now.
Seamonkey ironically is another free product of the Mozilla Foundation (who makes Firefox). I suppose we could just do a Mozilla link, rather than a Firefox one, but that's neither here nor there yet. The question is, "Is something like this with another non-profit a good idea?"
In the short term. What you do when a second rate browser offers you
twice the cash?
If the theoretical deal with the Moz Foundation is non-exclusive, review it. Is the new offer another non-profit non-commercial project that is not incompatible with Wikipedia goals? Keep in mind that there aren't exactly many big free open-source non-commercial non-profits that are
1) seriously high profile (Wikipedia, Firefox, and...?) 2) Flush with cash (Firefox, and...?).
This scenario is highly, highly unlikely. Firefox/Moz Foundation to my knowledge is the only such possible partner.
