> Hi Dave, well a few megabytes to me is significant. Just in general I place quite a bit of value on having a nice lightweight download and installation. It is true that is not valued by a lot of developers anymore but I think that's a shame though.

I hear you. I once lead a team that sweat blood to get a complete BASIC programming environment to run in 14KB (IBM System/34 BASIC, back in the day).

I tend to agree with you. I'm planning to use <canvas> in some other projects I'm working on, but SVG has never really appealed to me, so I won't bemoan it not being there in MoI.

Fair enough. Are there any other major functional pieces of WebKit you are planning on leaving out?
