SeaMonkey (not Seamonkey or Mozilla SeaMonkey) is the continuation of the former Mozilla Application Suite. It is community-driven, in contrast to the Mozilla internet suite which is governed by the Mozilla Foundation.
On March 10, 2005, the Mozilla Foundation announced that they would not release any further official versions of the suite beyond 1.7.x, as its main focus is now the standalone application Mozilla Firefox and Mozilla Thunderbird. However, the Mozilla Foundation emphasized that they would provide infrastructure for community members who wished to continue development. In effect, this means that the suite will still continue to be developed, but not by the Mozilla Foundation itself.
To avoid confusing organizations that still want to use the 1.7.x branch of the Mozilla Suite, the new unofficial product was given a new name of "SeaMonkey". This name was originally used internally as the code name of Mozilla Application Suite.
