there are a lot of open source projects which do miracles with less than 1% of what Mozilla earns each year There's none maintaining and improving a complete web engine though. I mean if you could do this on 1% of Mozilla's funds you'd have more Opera's. That's pre-Blink Opera's, mind you, because even they gave up on it.

> There's none maintaining and improving a complete web engine though. KDE used to maintain KHTML until a few years ago. I remember using it in 2008-2010 when it was a really solid, feature-complete web engine (even innovative at some points, e.g. it supported text-shadow long before Gecko). Then HTML 5 and ES 5 happened, and KHTML couldn't keep up anymore. I remember when, in 2011, I met the KHTML developer. Singular, not plural. </storytime>
