Yeah. I'd like Jeff to point out what is not mature with them and if these
things cant be solved in 2.4 timeframe.

I think there are several more small thing that a GNOME browser can do better.
But I think UI consistency is definately enough. I frankly feel ridicoulous
for a desktop to ship a browser that doesnt follow his guidelines ;)

Competing products:

I dont see mozilla like a competing product. They have different targets.
Galeon ? Well if this the reason we delay the choice of a native GNOME browser,
I think I should discontinue Epiphany development.
It's necessary to make a call between Galeon and Epiphany at some point.
So that the other project can retarget or stop to be developed ...

Complexity:
