Just a micro blog today to say some facts. In case you live under the rocks, rekonq is a software that has just reached the “perfect social browser” status. In fact all rekonq users tend to try contacting me asking for bugs to fix or features to implement…
Ok, stop joking and let’s see facts:
- rekonq 0.3.0 has been released today. I’m aware that a lot of distro are just releasing some packages about. If yours is not on the list or you prefer compiling code, you can find it through kde-apps or sf.
- With this release I can proudly say I reached my first goal: I feel I’m having “something” in my hands and a lot of people to share with. And I’m really happy about.
- We have a lot of things in our TODO list here and I really can’t wait starting implementing them. So, I really need this release to restart my happy developing nights
Enjoy!
I’m now using a self-compiled rekonq 0.3.0 under Ubuntu Jaunty. Overall it seems very nice! I would love to be able to move back to a proper KDE-integrated browser; I’ve been using Firefox for a while since I started to find that early KDE 4′s Konqueror had fallen too far behind in terms of performance. and I’ve recently moved enthusiastically to Chrome as my main browser.
I would echo the comments by others that, personally, I would really enjoy more (sorry) konqueror-like features, particularly the ability to embed, say, Okular. However, this is also not a deal-breaker to me – the most important thing is to have a fast, flexible, KDE-native browser that’ll fit graphically and integrate with other KDE technologies such as Nepomuk.
A multiprocess backend like Chrome would be nice, though not essential as long as the browser is fast and stable! Adblock / extensions is not a big deal to me at all, personally, as long as the brwoser is nice!
Ciao,sto compilando le qt4.6 anche se uso kde 4.3.2,volevo sapere se è possibile compilare rekonq dicendogli di usare le nuove qt,che però non saranno quello di default del sistema ma andranno in una cartella a parte,non so quale variabile d’ambiente impostare nel .configure.. o se è cmq possibile provare rekonq con il nuovo modulo qtWebKit delle ultime Qt.Grazie
