I don't think this or the money will make any difference.

I think a browser is too big to develop for one team and I think the Firefox browser is too alien for one team to hope to port to Amiga-like OSs.

I think it would be better to have a series of AROS bounties aimed at making the underlying technologies available through an API;

Eg: HTML and rendering
CSS
Javascript
Java
HTTPS

etc etc

This way each implementation would make it trivial to develop a browser with that functionality.

With this API we could finally, as a community, stick a finger up to all the buffoons and racketeers who revel in embarrassing us on a monthly basis on OSNews etc.   :-D
