No. No chance to play flash as well.

I believe licenses of Mosaic and NCSA httpd were traditionally known as "NCSA
licenses", but I agree it's wise to change it to "Mosaic" to avoid confusion
here.

2000 is quite too much in past, isn't it. Web pages have changed a lot since
then, therefore your observations are no longer relevant. Mosaic changed as
well. Having checked compatibility back in 2000 is equivalent to not having
checked at all.

Quite current. It hasn't changed that much.
