4<para><application>Mozilla</application> is a browser suite, the Open Source
5sibling of <application>Netscape</application>. It includes the browser,
6composer, mail client and an <acronym>IRC</acronym> client. A
7calendar component is also being built but it is not yet integrated into the
8stable <application>Mozilla</application> releases.</para>

10<para>In this section we also mention the building of <application>Mozilla Firebird</application>,
11(a stand-alone browser based on the Mozilla source code) and <application>Mozilla Thunderbird</application>,
12(a stand-alone mail client based on the Mozilla source code). Since the build instructions
13for <application>Mozilla Firebird</application> and <application>Mozilla Thunderbird</application>
14are similar to <application>Mozilla</application>, only the changes required with respect to
15the <application>Mozilla</application> instructions are mentioned.</para>
