Re: [webkit-dev] APNG support
Chromium is not interested in supporting APNG. I'm not opposed to landing this patch if other ports are interested in supporting APNG.

[webkit-dev] APNG support
Hi What is WebKit opinion of APNG support? I recently wrote the fully functional implementation, it's not that big (the format is simple), just extends PNGImageDecoder.cpp functionality a little bit. On platforms where it's not wanted or not needed, it could be easy to deactivate the code with a single #define What do you think? I posted the patch here: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17022 Cheers, Max. ___ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
