Which it was called initially throughout versions 0.1–0.5. I got onboard with version 0.7 when it was called Firebird, only for the 0.8 update to change the name yet again.

I could swear I was using something in 1996. Was that a precursor to Firefox?

Netscape?

Lol. Touché
It wasn't netscape, but my memory says it was related to Firefox (but don't trust my memory).
