opensourcing mui4? it is "certainly" some joke?


Well you don´t have to open source code to get it ported/used. If the MUI4-source was licensed to somebody like Grasshopper LLC, who could then sell eg. Pagestream bundled with (their own port of?) mui4 for AmigaOS4 it could also make it´s way onto the platform.

they're not even in the same league!


Let´s say they have a different focus. Joerg Strohmayers OWB is just a browser. Its as bare bones as it gets - no bells, no whistles, while FABs OWB has many more features and keeps adding to them. But AFAIK they are pretty much the same when it comes to how the websites look.

The common part is more than just WebKit. WebKit doesn´t even include a Javascript engine IIRC. But things like bookmarks, windows, filemanagement, etc. are certainly not part of the OWB-base.
