Latest Opera vesion 8.5 instead of Mozilla

#1 Post by tronkel »

I wonder if Barry would consider replacing the Mozilla Suite with Opera 8.5
This has just reently been provided as totally cost and ad-free. It is both smaller and faster than the Mozilla product and is an extremely polished effort. Less clunky than Mozilla with its extensions etc.

This would be perfect for inclusion in 1.05 I think. If it's already too late for that, availabliity as PupGet package would be good as well.

Puppy uses and reuses many of the libraries in Mozilla. John Murga may update his OperaPuppy which uses Opera - using 1.05 as a basis. So you may be in luck. Others too may decide to create puplets based around Opera or Firefox and Thunderbird

Yeah, with the new easy remaster-CD script PCCC, there's
going to be a litter of puplets
("puplets" is a term coined by Lobster I think).

Yes the term was used here

We need a wiki page on Bow-Wow - which is the official geek-speak for Puppy
- who is up for creating it?

eg.
Kennels (Puppy forum)
Litter - Puppy gathering
Puppian - anything to do with Puppy
Rabid Pup - :evil: (Ians idea)
Puppy Masters - Barry and G2
G2 - GuestToo
woof woof - approval (sometimes used by frisky Puppys to denote interest in other Puppys)
Miow - What?????

What about:
Rover - Laptop Puppy with wifi
Puppy actions:
Beg - plead for new Puppy features
Roll over and play dead - Kernel panic on shutdown.

Someone has also suggested:
St Bernard Puppy - REALLY BIG Puppy
So maybe:
Newfoundland Puppy - REALLY REALLY BIG Puppy (apologies to any Canucks present).
