Hello everybody:

I´m a k-meleon user and i´m really surprised with its speed.

i´m not a programmer, so i dont know how to make a k-meleon with gecko 1.9.1 but i´m really waiting for it.

Can someone tell me if k-meleon developer staff is working about this version 
(1.6 ¿?) because i`´m really interested about a package like 1.53 that you can download directly and install at your pc  (the link that u give us at this page is not useful for me because i don´t know what is it for ))

THANKS IN ADVANCE.... continue with your marvellous work
(some time ago i found ff and i thought it was the best browser.... BUT... 3 years ago I found k-meleon and its my default browser ... because it is really fantastic to work)

pp4mnk,

It will take some time to modify K-Meleon to accomodate the major changes that FireFox made to the Gecko engine to add in the SQLite dBase. As K-Meleon does not use XUL (software emulation overhead), but script languages, this is one of those major forks in the Gecko engine that require careful coding to get it right.

If you're willing to try out stuff, then look to Hao and Fred for their prototypes using Gecko 1.9 (instead of 1.8 as is used in KM 1.5.3) for Windows and Linux.

Personally I have been less than thrilled with FireFox's changeover to SQLite, but that is another topic for another day.[/quote]
