Just some info:

Macuco is based on QtWebkit (still using the official qt 4.6 though). I tried to compile with the experimental version but it breaks some of the functionality as it is.

I tried to compile arora for the n900 and was quite easy. The application has tons of the features you would expect on a full browser but you would have to recreate the entire UI to make it usable for the n900.

Re: [Request] A QtQuick Web browser

http://eric-ide.python-projects.org/...inibrowser.zip runs on the N900 and could be a good base for building a web browser off.

Theres a tutorial showing how it was built at http://eric-ide.python-projects.org/...ser/index.html

Its missing the qwebviewselectionsuppressor.py for fixing the scrolling bug and could also do with a full screen option, new windows and a back button. I'm not sure of the easiest way to add these but sure someone else here can help with that
