Hello,
On behalf of the World-Wide Web Consortium (W3C), it is our
pleasure to announce the first public release of the source code
of Amaya (0.95b).
Amaya is a Web client that acts both as a browser and as an
authoring tool. It has been designed with the primary purpose of
being a testbed for experimenting and demonstrating new
specifications and extensions of Web protocols and standards.
Among its characteristics, we can mention:
* WYSIWYG editing
* Implementation of style sheets according to the CSS1
specification
* Full implementation of HTML 3.2
* Use of HTTP/1.1, as furnished by libwww
* Remote publication of documents by means of the standard
HTTP PUT method, compatible with Jigsaw, Apache,
and the CERN server
Note that W3C's aim is not to provide a full-blown browser. Public
contributions are welcomed to help us complete its features.
Useful links:
* Amaya's home page [1]
* How to download and build Amaya from sources [2]
* How to download and install binary precompiled distributions
of Amaya for various Unix architectures [3]
