It seems that the khtml topic is up again.Here is my $0.02:
As a web developer, i use konqueror all the time.Its open at least 8 hours a day for me and i do a lot of javascript development on it.I debug my scripts, create advanced layouts and such.Of course I do have a Firefox as an alternative, but Im really happy with konqeuror.It hasnt as many extensions as firefox does, maybe Konqueror isnt even comparable to Firefox when it comes to features, but blaming khtml is not fair.

When people say khtml must be deprecated/killed/etc, they seem to forgot a few points:

1) khtml is already doing 90-05% of the job it should do.Its compatible with all major js libraries, it does css very well.there are bugs, of course, but webkit (and not webkit part) is just a few percents better than khtml.Killing khtml in favour of those few percentages is not the right thing to do.

2) khtml SHOULD LIVE until KDE 5.0, so KDE has to maintain it.

3) webkit part is not getting pushed *enough*.Instead, everyone just rants about how bad khtml is.This hurts khtmls development i believe.
Let me remind you the pre 4.0 discussion on Okular and Ligature.They had the very same purpose.Okular got maintained, it lived, it entered KDE and was one of the best kde apps so far.Ligature stayed unmaintained.

Now, khtml is maintained, webkit part is not (enough).Still everyone hates khtml? come on guys, this is FOSS.You forgot how it works? khtml developers are volunteers!

4) The way of making software better is not by posting murdurer blog posts (like lets kill khtml).Its by developing it.If you want khtml dead, please dont hurt khtml.Instead, develop a better alternative.

5) Results of acid3 and such tests are cool, but they have nothing to do with real world.IE6 is still having a huge percentage of market share and none of those tests are not going to do anything on real web pages.So if you are going to use another browser because it does better in these tests, you are doing the wrong thing.At least i think so.

Sorry for my bad English.

Update: I didnt try to be offensive, if it felt like that, that was probably my fault and im sorry for that.Also i dont hate webkit or webkit part and i hope that webkit part would be good enough soon that unhappy users get happy again.I just wanted to ask people not to hurt khtml.
