I tried galeon a while ago. I looked for ages for a decent GTK based web
browser because I wanted my browser to theme nicely with my desktop at home.
I have a GTK AquaX theme I like.
How are they progressing?
I had to try downloading it and compiling it a number of times and trying it
with different mozilla builds before I managed to get it to work.
It does look promising though.

I disagree that a lot are good.

Yep, I agree. I'm definately not suggesting that mozilla.org's work is no
good. However getting back to netscape, I have had a very bad time using
netscape in the past and am now very happily using konqueror. You would have
to do a lot of convincing before I would go back to using netscape again,
even if it is a total rewrite. It would need to have a number of features (as
a web browser) that konqueror doesn't have before I would even try it.
