Safari, MacOSX’s default web browser, has its rendering engine based on a technology called KHTML, which is the engine that displays web pages on the KDE platform for Linux. Unfortunatly it now seems that KDE developers were getting very little from Apple and now Apple have almost stuck the preverbial finger up at KDE. Meanwhile Gecko which is the engine that powers Mozilla has benefited from being set free from Netscape and now finds its way into many open source browsers, Firefox is shaking up the market in big ways. Is this the example to the world of how open source should be allowed to work in a comercial environment?
