Re: idea: Update browser engine on N900

Re: idea: Update browser engine on N900
Webkit might be a good idea. As for (2), (3), (4), (5), (6) (and possibly (7)) I would just drop support for all that. We could have a nice "pure" browser.

Re: idea: Update browser engine on N900
The other suggestion that has been raised is to ditch Gecko completly and use webkit instead (since that still has suitable GTK bindings).

Re: idea: Update browser engine on N900
I don't know, QML-Browser's UI looks very much like MicroB. It looks and feels like tbe hottest candidate for a true replacement. If only it did not crash on start on Thumb ;)
