OSNews Talks With the Konqueror Team

Posted by timothy on from the what-the-future-holds dept.

JigSaw writes: "OSNews features an exclusive interview with the Konqueror team, KDE's integrated filemanager, image/document viewer and web browser. Dirk Mueller, Waldo Bastian, Carsten Pfeiffer and Simon Hausmann are answering questions regarding the future of Konqueror, its portability and the integration with KDE3 and QT3. And speaking about KDE3, OSNews is reporting what's new in the new version: KDE 3 will be based on QT 3.0 and will also feature educational and other apps (like Kompare and KWinTV) as part of the default installation, support for extremely large files, new versions for KNode and KMail, email templates in KMail, advanced Web Shortcuts, S/MIME support, plugins for the KMenu, a graphical Regular Expression app (KRegExpEditor) and much more. A (very early) alpha version is already available."

    Well, I hate to bring this up, and in NO WAY do I support Microsoft, but as it stands now, Internet Explorer is the fastest web browser out there (sadly enough). It renders images the fastest as well. Konqueror and Mozilla are catching up, but slower than Microsoft is spitting new IE versions out. I think it's good that they are competing with IE, because Microsoft can't rule everything in the computer world.

    Why did they have to do an 'exclusive interview'?

    Note to OSNews: Exclusive means that the subjects agreed not to talk to anyone else, not that you're the only ones who bothered to interview them.
