From my perspective, all we have to do is to port WebKit, and
try to negotiate joint porting with Apple of Safari to
OpenSolaris. If I'd have unlimited time, I'd do it alone:).
For now this is just a small suggestion.

You are probably right. Thunderbird takes its time ;-) As does FF3 Opera
(browser PLUS email) start very quickly and the engine is fast too. Alas, it
still is not compatible with (a very few) sites.
I.e www.hyves.nl (a dutch social network) works but not all options do.
It's coming though. I'm curious how v10 will be. Don't want the beta.
I'll just wait a little longer.
