Gecko is multi-platform *now* (not vaporware). ;-) Besides, you get a
lot of cool tools/features: tabs, XUL, best rendering engine
available, did I mention *XUL*.
can gecko/firefox easily be integrated in an existing gui shell and have
a satisfying interco with this shell ? (in and out exchange of messages,
interception of messages) ? or does gecko/firefox impose to have all the
gui layout rendered by NGLayout (like in the xulrunner mode ?)
My preference would be to have *Wengo as a XUL application*, like
Thunderbird, Sunbird, NVU, Songbird, Zap.
That would yield a huge number of benefits:
- OSS
- cross-platform
- very active development community
- huge user-base (Firefox has 100,000,000+ users!)
- best rendering engine, already included
- automatic incremental updates
- entire UI easily customized via XML & CSS
Here are some XULRunner experts you could contact:
