Hello (again) :-)

You don't read the news about KDE often, do you ? :-)
http://www.kde.org/technology.html will tell you all the cool stuff
happening in the KDE world.

Javascript and Java support are under way, HTML 4.0 and CSS as well.
And progressive display of images as well.

And since they're listening, heaps of thanks to Lars Knoll and Antti
Koivisto for their work on the HTML widget and Harri Porten for the
Javascript support !
