That is great news! Now I only have to find out what this technology 
actually does ;)

I hope to do more work on that in the coming weeks.

Sorry, when should be if, no decision has been made that I am aware of and 
we don't want to force kdom, though I can say it is fine for our (ksvg2) 
needs :-)

I would like to add that kdom now is a good base for further xml based
technologies. Even when kdom does not get adapted, such code would easily 
run on khtml too since we stick close to it.
