Basically, it looks like it's going to be Opera on the Chrome engine, but with the return all the cool unique features Opera ditched when they switched engines a little while back. And hopefully managed by a group that has the spirit from Opera's good old days.

What about Otter Browser?
I tried this a while back (a few months?), and it doesn't seem like it has progressed much. I think Vivaldi has a much better chance of getting somewhere. A bunch of coders doing work on a voluntary basis will have a hard time competing with teams of full-time paid engineers.

I'm surprised I haven't heard of this until now, it's made by a group of members from the now closed Opera (12) forums. There are people who are fond of the Presto version's features so I'm glad there are efforts like it.
