Subject: source to Grendel (a Java mail reader) released

Grendel is a mail/news client, written in Java.

Grendel was a part of the 1997 effort to rewrite Navigator/Communicator
from scratch in Java.  That project (code named ``Xena,'' but sometimes
referred to by the press as ``Javagator'') was cancelled before
completion.  

Nobody is actively maintaining Grendel, and it needs a lot of work
before it will be usable.  But there it is.  Perhaps you'd like to give
it a caring home?

For details, see http://www.mozilla.org/projects/grendel/

That makes Grendel the third incomplete mail client we've released the
source to this year!  (Actually, that's not quite true -- we've now
released the incomplete source code to one mail client, and the source
code to two incomplete mail clients -- but who's counting.)
