That doesn't relate at all.

First of all, that's a fallacy. "TT 'took over' the kjs/khtml
development" doesn't in any way imply "wouldn't be a webcore".
But yes, thanks for the great example. KHTML is exactly an area where my
point can be seen. It's not a huge secret that we're undermaned in the
KHTML department, if a company would step up and started maintaining
KHTML for KDE - using their version would be absolutely obvious
(removes the maintaince burden, gives us more freedom to put resources
in other areas and gives us a fully maintained library).
