Re: [Nautilus-list] Nautilus-Mozilla proposal

[<bordoley msu edu>]

When I skimmed the galeon-devel list earlier in the week, in seemed at 
least that they were planning on making galeon work with either 
mozilla(if and when ported) as well as with gtkhtml2. I can email the 
galeon  list to confirm this, since i'm not positive.

But just to add, if galeon can't get mozilla to work, than nautilus can't 
either which comes back to my original point. We should let the galeon 
folks handle the webview, and ditch nautilus-mozilla and all it's bugs.
