The Qt project didn't write the origins of Google's browser engine.

Blink forked from Webkit, which started as a fork of the KHTML and KJS libraries from KDE. Many KDE-projects are built upon Qt, but Qt is an independent project.

I think they are talking about Konqueror, not QT. Konqueror is what KHTML was developed for, iirc.

KDE-projects like Konqueror and Falkon, the subjects under specific discussion?
