hello,

Nothing is avaible yet. Problem is to choose between homemade (exactly what
we like, but slow to develop), Mozilla (big, well supported, but not so
easily embeddable, and uses XPcom), Konqueror (fast, modern, but uses
corba). Question is, can we take the HTML renderer from thoses one, and use
for us ?

Just because the ultimate final goal is to write an OS completly in SDL :-)
No, seriously, this is a mutli-target effort, for embedded web in games, for
linux-console target, linux-palm size computer target, and so on...
More funny, I have written a little C++ pbject that cleanly embedded SDL
surface, and has a methode to return an OpenGL texture, which is really
cool, just having your web browser floating around you...
There doesn't exists fast, simple, really fun 3d environment :-)
Why not just build one ?
