Qt? Gecko?) ported so that porting the 10 (or 100) best known FOSS packages (whatever they are) would become more possible? How about a project to take something like Firefox and restructure the whole sw so that best modules would be kept and other modules re- implemented /dev/draw way and Rio way? Or is the real problem really the GUI? Or something else, like the GNU toolchain needed to compile a typical FOSS project?
