That would be great if it happens. There's no sense in throwing out a 
perfectly good Web browser (1.2.x) for an incomplete one (1.3.x). Galeon 
1.2.x is very nearly the perfect browser for me, so all that is needed (IMHO) 
is an update to support new versions of Mozilla. Mozilla 1.7 is meant to be a 
long-lived branch, and the Mozilla folks are focusing on making it 
ultra-stable, so it makes sense to make Galeon 1.2.x compatible with it.

I would be _very_ appreciative if this were to happen (please philipl!).
