In my opinion, no, but I don't really care one way or the other. All Mozilla
newsreaders have been released by one entity, namely Netscape (so far
anyway). The various NewsWatchers have different (though similar) user
interfaces, different feature sets, and different source code
maintainers/developers. I think it would be akin to considering SEMI and Gnus
to be the same newsreader for Statland... Or XEmacs and Emacs to be the same
editor if you were compiling editor usage statistics.

P.S. I also recommend changing "Apple" to "Mac OS".
