First, that assumes that kubuntu will always be the only distribution to use it as the default. If other distributions decide to do this as well then this argument no loner holds. Second, this isn't necessarily true, depending on how you define "distribution". Chakra ships rekonq as the default as well. openSUSE is also considering it as the default for their KDE installation, but that may depend somewhat on how rekonq development progresses over the next few months. If rekonq really wants to maximize its exposure it should probably be focusing on getting the features each distribution requires in order to make it the default prior to that distribution's release. So considering it is already the default in kubuntu, it would be more advantageous to ignore kubuntu and focus on the next major distribution to have a release, whatever that may be. -Todd _______________________________________________ rekonq mailing list [email protected] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/rekonq
