The product of the AOL-Sun deal when AOL bought Netscape. I'm not sure of all the details on how this worked out, but I think it went something like this. AOL got the web site and Sun got the software.

Their iPlanet Web Server 4.1 isn't too bad. It is still in beta and only available on Linux. What is really weird is reading the license and seeing The Alliance this and The Alliance that. It just sounds so ominous
