Dear Webkitters,
Pleyo, by my voice and others such as Max or Sebastien, has been
talking here now and then about the future outcome of its own
refactored version of WebKit, based on a specific Abstraction Layer
that we believe would help make portage to embedded platforms easier.
We are finally ready to show you the very first iteration. It's
based on the rev. 19826 of WebKit, code named Robespierre as the
french revolutionnary hero :)
Since we are not willing to head to a fork, we hope that some (not
to say more...) of our changes will eventually go back to WebKit
trunk, while we will keep merging from WebKit ToT on a regular
basis. So expect to see some patchs arrive in the following weeks,
Maxime already started sending some and more pleyo folks do the same
in a near future...
The website is not really finalized but we couldn't wait to get some
feedback on our work. We will add more details on legal, extensions
and technical architecture later.
Congratulations on your unveiling! I'm interested to hear about
the changes to you made to get WebKit working on your platform(s), and
I'm very glad that you're going to be sending patches back to the
WebKit project (perhaps eventually your work can even happen in the
main WebKit Subversion repository). Please keep us updated!
-Adam
