Linux browser project



I thought some of the blinux group might want to provide some input into
the following project--notice forwarded from comp.os.linux.announce.

>Announcing the Linux Browser Project
>====================================
>
>The Linux Browser Project is a group of developers developing a worldwide
>web browser for Linux and other platforms. It is our opinion that none of
>the web browsers currently available for Linux have fully maximized the 
>capabilities of this operating system. The goal of this project is to
>develop a web browser which consists of a modular program architecture 
>based around a small, fast kernel which would load necessary modules on
>demand. This would include separate modules for HTML interpretation, net
>connectivity, and user interface and display, as well as making it easy
>for other user added modules to be written for additional functionality.
>In the end, the basic browser and "standard" modules should be able to
>fit on a 1.44MB floppy.
>
>The project is in its early stages, and we are announcing the project at
>the moment to make ourselves known to the rest of the Linux community.
>If anyone would be interested in helping us out in any way, please feel
>free to join the mailing lists or visit the web site and let us know that 
>you are willing to help.
>
>There are two mailing lists setup for discussing this project, you can
>subscribe to them by sending mail to majordomo charon net au with either
>"subscribe linux-browser-disc" or "subscribe linux-browser-dev" in the
>body. The linux-browser-disc list is for general discussion of the project,
>linux-browser-dev is for discussion of technical details among developers.
>
>More information about the project can be found on the Linux Browser 
>Project home page at http://www.tjhsst.edu/LBP/.

>        Thanks for your time,
