Hello, everybody,

First release of Arora [1] web browser for QtMoko is online! Check the
package feed.

The port is based on Arora 0.4. This is an old version, but its
functionality is more that enough for a smartphone:
 * tabs and windows
 * downloads
 * history
 * bookmarks
 * google search
 * find on page
 * etc etc (all as on desktop)

Special features was added:
 * finger-scrolling
 * finger-friendly toolbar and menus
 * mobile user-agent (fake iPhone)
 * many minor tweaks

The git repo of the project [2] is currently offline due to undergoing
maintenance on github, so latest tarball and _screenshots_ are temporarily
placed to [3].

I think that it is good option to have v0.4 available while v0.9 is not
ported yet.

This hints may be useful:
 * toolbar buttons: new tab, close tab, toggle fullscreen
 * menu -> edit -> preferences
 * menu -> view -> mobile user-agent
 * menu -> window -> [switching between windows]
