after yesterday’s rumors (started by unknown people and spread by arrington & co.), netscape has published an official response. here’s the gist of it:

Yesterday afternoon, a TechCrunch blogger insisted that he had just heard Netscape’s death rattle. According to Michael Arrington, AOL was on the verge of killing off this very site. But despite the rumors, we’re very much alive and kicking.

furthermore, the post says:

Here at Netscape, we prefer to dwell on the good news. With millions of unique visitors per month, the site is the focus of a growing, enthusiastic community. We have major design initiatives on the schedule for the next year, and will continue to respond to feedback from our large, energetic, sometimes rambunctious membership. We’re still here. Should that change, our community will be the first to know.
