An epiphany in browsing

Epiphany Web Browser

As many of you know, the former maintainer of Galeon, Marco Pesenti Gritti, recently started a new project based on the Galeon codebase known as Epiphany. The main goals of the Epiphany web browser are simplicity, usability, following the GNOME HIG, and GNOME integration. Epiphany is available from GNOME cvs in the "epiphany" module.

Ed Dumbill has written a nice short little review of Epiphany in its current developmental state, complete with a few screenshots, and some download links.

Also, here is another screenshot of Epiphany taken by James Willcox showing a patch that provides load feedback in the tabs and a bookmark context menu.

On another note, If any of you out there would be interested in contributing to the Epiphany project, Marco could use some help with the Epiphany website

Well, i dont know about you, but my nautilus galeon view is working fine for me,

and as i understand, to get the java plugin working correctly you need to just compile mozilla with a certian tag (for the 2.96 gcc)

Why kmellon dosnt require mozilla? thats because it dosent use it, it uses Khtml, and because Gtkhtml is just not there yet, that is why Gecko (ie mozilla) is being used for galeon. Why reinvent the wheel?

And if mozill acrashs so much for you, are you using a stable version? or the beta version?
