[arch-dev-public] vivaldi browser in community
Are there any objections to bring in vivaldi browser [1] into our community repo once its stable is released? Vivaldi is a chromium based browser, and it is different from most other browser in the sense that it offers a lot more UI customizability and some unique features not found in other browsers.

Does their license allow re-distributing of the binaries? I couldn't figure much out from the information of their EULA. [1] Personally I don't see the benefit of having another closed-source browser in our repos like opera. [1] http://sprunge.us/YOIF -- Jelle van der Waa

That's also my opinion. We should avoid packaging proprietary binaries unless they bring a clear benefit for our users. I'm quite sure nvidia does, for instance, but I've yet to be convinced for that new browser. Cheers. -- Gaetan
