so technically, what is the reasoning behind html5? I read that page "whats next for meego", but I dont get it. Isn't html5 going to be a set of dlls? Or is something really changing in the linux kernel for html5 lol ... Isnt Qt just a set of dlls/libraries (sorry i'm a windows dev so i keep refering to them as dlls)? If we delete those libs, qt will stop working from n900/n9 right? Assuming that the current worldwide trend was html5 and we had it all running on n900/n9(50), and there was this new trend of Qt (assume apple liked it a lot), would we just throw away the whole friggin distro to make a new distro to make it qt compatible?

It just seems like some totally marketing decision which the higher technical people are now trying to justify, willingly or unwillingly. Poor souls.
