Not fully related, but I remember looking at a website of some person two or three years ago, who claimed to be one of the original developers of Firefox, and if I'm not mistaken, in some blog post on his website, he said something about not getting the recognition he deserved for his work? and shared some early source code of Firefox.

I cannot find that person or that blog post, anyone know anything about this?

Per Wikipedia: "Firefox was created in 2002 under the codename "Phoenix" by members of the Mozilla community who desired a standalone browser rather than the Mozilla Application Suite bundle."

I do remember from the time that it actually was one young guy who made a strip down version of the Mozilla browser that then got incorporated as a Mozilla product and replaced the Mozilla browser some years after. I don't see that mentioned anywhere though. History says it was Blake Ross[1] coming from Netscape but I don't remember it that way.
