Konqueror is maintained, but both of the Web backends are not. Webkit is not \
maintained in qt anymore (apple is not playing nice with open source again). Khtml \
gets a commit once in a while, but there are not enough people working on it to make \
it a modern engine.
Probably the quickest way to get Konqueror useful for the Web is to use QtWebEngine, \
it is Google's fork of Webkit and should be maintained for a while. I don't know if \
we can use it though.
