Since this is not being updated anymore, could it be put into Source Forge? -- -- Wojtek

The entire source code is available under the Mozilla Public Licence. There are instructions on how to pull it out of CVS on the website: http://multizilla.mozdev.org/source.html If anyone is able, feel free to fork the project to SourceForge, or even join the project as it stands on MozDev. As the website says, patches are gratefully accepted!

But a Source Forge project implies that it can be modified, source control handles branches, etc. I think that all we really want is an installer (at least that is my hope) rather than extra features. -- -- Wojtek

Do a CVS Checkout" To the cvs source control system where the multizilla source resides. But the problem isn't access to the source. It needs someone who understands the code and how to fix it. By and large the people who understand how the tabbrowser code work either already have their own tabbrowser extensions (Tab Utilities, TabMixPlus) or are now working on the Firefox tabbrowser code itself. Me, my current plan is to (slowly) add the Multizilla features I use to the SeaMonkey tabbrowser code itself. > I think that all we really want is an installer (at least that is my > hope) rather than extra features. There should be a batch file somewhere in the source code that builds the installer. You could email HJ and ask for developer access to the multizilla cvs, or ask if he agrees for someone to take over the project and copy the source to SourceForge or GitHub or BitBucket. And good luck. There is two years worth of bit rot in the code that you or someone needs to modernize.
