(Where was the link?) IIRC, Opera is now free-as-in-beer, but it's still not free in the DFSG sense, which is a great shame; it would be great if it could go into Debian. Perhaps it could be distributed by Debian in non-free, though. I might have a look at its licence. I've been using Konqueror at work for a week or so now after Netscape somehow started crashing my machine hard. I must say that it's a very nice browser, and much faster than Mozilla. You don't need to be running KDE either, which is good for me as I'm a GNOME/sawfish type. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
