Hi,

Have people discussed including kaffe or similar in kdesupport?  Java's
a pretty big part of the Internet these days and it would be great if
Konqueror could support it out of the box (even if the distros provide a
JVM there is no assurance people will install it -- since virtually
nobody will know that Konqueror requires it, most people would not think
they need it).

Looking at sizes, kaffe-1.05 is 3MB, whereas kde-support is currently
1.6MB.  License is GPL.  Compile time on a 350MHz AMD-3D is under 6
minutes; quite a bit less than most kde packages (hehe, configure takes
about that long for kdebase).

Ciao,

Andreas
