MAIL CLIENTS: Any reason why you're not including KMail? It's in much 
better shape than Evolution. Unless, of course, you don't plan to 
include any KDE stuff.

BROWSERS: For most sites Konqueror is a faster, more featureful 
browser than either Netscape and Mozilla. Again the only reason you 
should avoid it is if you don't want to include any KDE apps at all. 
Konqueror is a a more than half-decent graphic browser. And a fairly 
good file manager to boot. If you want something consistently faster 
the only option is perhaps Opera (which is non-free or at least free 
to the degree you want to get bombarded by Net ads).

WINDOW MANAGERS: Why not include icewm, the most Windows-like of the 
lite browsers. icewm-gnome has gnome support.
