I think that porting Chimera would be a good first choice for browser porting.  Smaller code base breakoff from Mozilla, and Chimera is written for the Mac, so it's already written for PPC.


Holger Kruse's 'nordic global' website does have a Chimera port listed as one of the clients that have already been ported to Amiga with his X11 library.
It was an alpha version...and it was a graphical web browser...how much this resembles the mac os x chimera, I have no idea.

The early chimera effort was not based on gecko, so I would be surprised if this is a gecko based product....

but its all interesting...didn't holger kruse go work for rebol...why not release this stuff into the pd, if he's not going to make any money on it....

yes, but this is partially just semantics, if OS 4 builds in X11 into the operating system, then all those ports are 'native' amgia applications.

Its only not 'native' because its not.  

But yes, I figured it was before being gecko based, that would be too easy :-)
