The Site seems almost dead, at least when looking at the news on the 
frontpage. There were a number of Konqueror related news on the dot recently, 
inclulding the KDE 2.2 and 2.2.1 releases, three awards, an interview and a 
review of Konqueror's CSS Implementation. 
I have wrapped up these news in (hopefully) the right HTML code for inclusion 
in the web site (code taken from content/main.html in webcvs). I am not sure 
who's responsible for the Konqueror.org site, so I am cross-posting this to 
the promo and kfm-devel lists. Of course feel free to remove news from that 
list or make news items shorter.

<strong>Interview with the Konqueror core team</strong>
<br />04-September-2001
<p>OSnews is running an interview with Konqueror developers Dirk Mueller, 
Waldo Bastian, Carsten Pfeiffer and Simon Hausmann about what the future 
holds in store for Konqueror. Most of the covered topics are familiar to the 
frequent dot.kde.org reader, but some stuff -- such as details of the Atheos 
port, font handling, and plans for improved CSS2 support -- is very 
interesting. Read the whole interview <a
