@ Yes... Pretty please. We can't all travel to WWW'94 and to wait until
@ the end of May is pure torture!

Hrm, just thinking aloud here (and adding my voice to the call for a
prerelease since I took a look at the .gif file and it looks dead
nifty)....

Since you have the HTML spec fully implemented Dave, and you say it
validates HTML etc why not release. After all:

a) the end of May is a long way off in WWW terms. We may be on HTML+++
then ( :) for the humoursly impared :) )

b) Since we all want HTML+ to evolve now that HTML is being ``officially''
laid down, we do need some sort of full HTML browser?

c) If you have something that good, why hold it back - and if you dont
know what I mean check out the screen shot :)

But seriously Dave, please please please do atleast a statically
compiled binary prerelease in the next few days... we all want to know
what we can expect in the future... cos it sure looks good...
