BTW this list is for people working on developing Quanta... This is where you 
submit patches. Please use the user list to ask user questions.

To expand on What Andras said, I intend to look for a maintainer again, but 
the last two went through extreme grief and burnout. It's not only incredibly 
complex, but the underlying platform of KHTML continues to change, with the 
ultimate hope of merging Apple changes that would make this easier in... In 
short, this is such a huge and complex task it will probably take a sponsored 
developer and there is no way it will be working before probably KDE 4.2 at 
the very soonest. I wish it were different.

If this were on the user list hundreds of users might get an answer a dozen or 
so developers already know.
