Great news!
I am wondering wether Apple's next step would be adopting KIO slaves?

BTW: it's nice to know that people from Eazel found new jobs at Apple.

|  Hi,
|
|  I'm the engineering manager of Safari, Apple Computer's new web browser
|  built upon KHTML and KJS.  I'm sending you this email to thank you for
|  making such a great open source project and introduce myself and my
|  development team.  I also wish to explain why and how we've used your
|  excellent technology.  It's important that you know we're committed to
|  open source and contributing our changes, now and in the future, back
|  to you, the original developers.  Hopefully this will begin a dialogue
|  among ourselves for the benefit of both of our projects.
|
|  I've "cc"-ed my team on this email so you know their names and contact
|  information.  Perhaps you already recognize some of those names.  Back
|  in '98 I was one of the people who took Mozilla open source.  David
|  Hyatt is not only the originator of the Chimera web browser project but
|  also the inventor of XBL.  Darin Adler is the former lead of the
|  Nautilus file manager.  Darin, Maciej Stachowiak, John Sullivan, Ken
|  Kocienda, and I are all Eazel veterans.

|  so it may take myself and my staff several hours before we can respond
|  to email.  My apologies in advance.
