chromium-browser and disk usage

[Phill Whiteside]

Hi Uli,

you'd need to ask Walter (wxl) about xombrero on PPC, I know he is a
proponant of it, so I'd guess he has it working :) I'm not too sure what
the PPC guys thought of Midori, I know it was up 'in the mix' when they
were discussing a browser for Lubuntu-PPC in 12.10. We only get to really
discuss this stuff once every 6 months and there is no harm in flagging
something up to be revisited in discussion at the next cycle.

Regards,

Phill.
