re all,

more on  Chromium / Iron:

I've  been using  Iron now  for  a while  and it  very much  resembles
Chromium; after being generally happy  with the speed of the software,
I was looking for more  precise informations about the patches applied
by Iron - then today a friend (Google employee) passed me this link:

http://neugierig.org/software/chromium/notes/2009/12/iron.html

I still  didn't do a code review  on Iron myself, nor  even diff'd its
source against Chromium's  trunk, however the above link  reads like a
veritable analysis  to me that,  along with the poor  documentation on
Iron that its developers provide, basically erodes my trust for futher
usage.

I'm now opting  for Chromium, nevertheless it would  be really nice if
the  GNU  project can  host  a  patch-set  that is  peer-reviewed  for
characteristics that we regard as freedom and privacy respecting.

All doe there might  be no need for that at all:  from what I can hear
in informal  conversations among Google developers, it  seems that the
Chromium codebase might conform with our requirements.

ciao
