Re: galeon -- no advanced prefs



Hi,

Thanks for your reply.  No I haven't found a fix for the certificate
problem.  The more I looked into the problem the more unbelievable the
situation appeared to me -- at least two wack-o things are happening:

1. Moving to Gnome2 and using gconf-tool.  It looks like some of the
   old menu choices are configurable using the command line
   "gRegEdit.exe" ... I mean gconf-tool.  Makes me wonder if Micro$oft
   distracted GNOME by pouring a little funding into the mono
   project...

2. galeon development is essentailly stalled as the lead developer
   quit to work on the mozilla^H^H^H phoenix^H^H^H firebird browser.
   Long term this is probably a good thing.  Short term is kind of
   messy.

Makes we think very seriously about the K desktop...  Pity, I have
been relatively happy with gnome+galeon for almost 2 years.

Cheers,
Curt
