You use as a counterexample an automatic generated tagline from google, which is not a source.

There is no maintainer right now: https://blogs.kde.org/2014/08/16/konqueror-looking-maintainer Konqueror (kdelibs4-based) is released as part of KDE Applications. No Frameworks versions are planned until someone complete the port (the same as any other application ported to Frameworks). The Plasma team has not stated anything about the default browser or the browser with good integration with Plasma 5, which even the current Konqueror is not (as it is not ported yet). > If KDE (or again whatever it's called) wants to get out of > the browser business, that's fine; > but it needs to be stated and not on some mailing list.

I disagree; if you want the best desktop, so Plasma, experience, the current kdelibs4 Konqueror is not so different from Firefox or rekonq.
