Well, we already have two html widgets in the desktop release (gtkhtml2
and gecko). This would be the third :)

I think the way to go here would be to move Yelp to Gecko, drop gtkhtml2
and use gtkhtml for Evolution. In the long run, would it be possible to
move Evolution to Gecko? Then we could depricate both gtkhtml and
gtkhtml2.

I've been meaning to ask this for a while. Galeon/Epiphany developers,
would it be possible to break out your wrapping code for gecko into it's
own library, say libgnome-html or something that can be used by projects
such as Yelp, Devhelp, Evolution?

I've experimented some with Gecko in Devhelp but only used
gtkmozembedded which is way to limited for anything other than just
showing a webpage.

Cheers,
