Why? It's just a rebrand of Firefox with a few trivial patches, as far as I know. If you find Firefox itself unsatisfactory, try one of the other forks/cousins from the Mozilla family (Pale Moon, Waterfox, or Seamonkey). >I suppose a browser is not really a candidate for > becoming a TDE-Trinity package? but it is a thought, since we already have > Konqueror, which is a web browser as well as a file manager. There's a couple of obvious problems: 1. Firefox and all its forks are GTK-based. TDE is (T)QT-based. 2. Adopting another Really Huge codebase is the last thing this project needs right now. If the manpower to work on a browser were available, it would be better to put it to use replacing Konqueror's layout and scripting engines with something more modern. E.
