The '''Mozilla Application Suite''' (originally known as '''Mozilla''', marketed as the '''Mozilla Suite''') is a discontinued [[cross-platform]] integrated [[Internet suite]]. Its development was initiated by [[Netscape Communications Corporation]], before their acquisition by [[AOL]]. It was based on the source code of [[Netscape Communicator]]. The development was spearheaded by the [[Mozilla Organization]] from 1998 to 2003, and by the [[Mozilla Foundation]] from 2003 to 2006. It has been superseded by [[SeaMonkey]] Internet suite (SeaMonkey was the original code name for the project), a community-driven Internet suite that is based on the same source code and continued to be developed with newer Mozilla codebase.
 
The Mozilla Suite was composed of several main programs: ''Navigator'' (a [[Web browser]]), ''Communicator'' ([[Mozilla Mail & Newsgroups]]), a Web page developer ([[Mozilla Composer]]), an [[IRC client]] ([[ChatZilla]]) and an electronic address book. Also included were tools to synchronisesynchronize the application with [[PalmPilot]] devices, and several extensions for advanced Web development including the [[DOM Inspector]] and [[Venkman]] (a JavaScript [[debugger]]).
 
Versions 6 and 7 of the [[Netscape (web browser)|Netscape]] suite were based on the Mozilla Suite. The last official version is 1.7.13, as Mozilla Foundation is currently focusing on the development of [[Mozilla Firefox|Firefox]] and [[Mozilla Thunderbird|Thunderbird]]. The Mozilla Suite is available under the terms of the Mozilla project's [[tri-license]], as [[free and open-source software]].
