    I see where the bounty has reached more than $2000. That's great. However haven't heard of any progress recently. There was an update to the website on 17th December, but that was some time ago. I know KHTML browser for MorphOS is based on GTK+WebCore so I looked at some screenshots for that on other platforms, here's one: screenshot.

    It would be great if we could get a broswer like that on MorphOS, especially if it were stable.

    It seems that topic about switching to new code was lost in mz crash. So quick brief - I wasn't able to work on khtml for a few weeks and meanwhile nokia released new code of their mobile khtml-based browser (http://opensource.nokia.com/projects/S60browser/index.html) and since late feb i'm working on that code. I hope that maybe next week i'll be able to post first screenshots showing that new code in work.

    (It means that whole nokia code has been compiled successful for a first time and now I can start work on other interesting thing - MOS wrapper :-) )

    So what does it mean "start work on MOS wrapper"?

    How do you manage to be in Kielce & Krakow at the same time? ;-) :-D

    Great, Marcik, thanks for telling us that. KHTML is the best hope for a modern browser for us right now. I hope you make good progress. I just made a modest contribution to the bounty. Keep going!
