Re: Congrats ! and well done !

why do people want KDE to drop the best free software rendering engine there is, and adopt a far slower, more bloated, harder to mantain and less complete rendering engine??? firefox and OO.o should be burned to the ground, and be forgotten as soon as possible. both share the same problems, created by their history. they where proprietary apps, developed by a few and just for a few people. not modular, clean, transparant and wel-documented like most (no, of course not all) free software. enormous amounts of money have already been spend on cleaning them up, and still they lag behind free-software-from-the-beginning like khtml and Koffice.

from every 10 bucks you spend on OO.o, 9 go into 'shit how and where does it do this' instead of usefull development.

in free software, darwinism plays a big role. and darwinism mosly favors the BEST. sorry OO.o, sorry firefox/gecko.
