Yup...I'm porting ABrowse and its not much porting left. khtml and qt compiles, but not tested so I guess theres quite a few bugs to squash. What is left is also the client, but that should be pretty trivial. When Im finnished with the port, I would love someone to take a look at kssl or similiar, because I really think a ssl layer is a must. It is as needed as javascript. I have not had a chance to test the khtml or qt parts, since I have not been home for a month. I hope to get home this week and porting the acctual client, and start testing khtml and qt. A alpha release should not be much work left. Regards /Procton
