This is not old news. Below is an article from News.com that was released today. It will definitely mean revenue to Symantec given that Netscape will be selling Visual Cafe Pro as part of the Web SuiteTools. The previous announcement re Netscape was that they were using Symantec's JIT compiler rather than Borland's.

Netscape endorses intranet tools
By Nick Wingfield
December 11, 1996, 5:45 a.m. PT

At Fall Internet World today, Netscape
Communications (NSCP) gave its seal of approval
to a handful of intranet development tools that it is
collectively calling SuiteTools.

The company also unveiled two other tools today:
an online guide called Tools for Netscape ONE
and a set of Java code called theWindowing
Internet Foundation Classes that allows users to
design graphical user interfaces.

Netscape's SuiteTools will include a number of
existing tools from other vendors, including
NetObjects' Fusion 2.0, NetDynamics'
NetDynamics, Symantec's Visual Caf‚ Pro, and
Netscape's own LiveWire Pro.

The family of products is not a traditional tools
suite, but rather a set of what Netscape considers
the "best of breed." According to the company,
the products will be sold individually by Netscape
and for the same prices for which they are
currently available from the respective vendors.

Still, Netscape's endorsement is a big win for the
individual vendors since Netscape will market the
products directly from its heavily trafficked Web
site beginning in the first quarter of 1997.
