Oh, and further information: webkit.org servers are currently all hosted by
macosforge.org on Apple's campus last time I checked. William Siegrist aka
wms, wsiegr...@apple officially admins them last I checked. Mark Rowe does
some too. I see no reason why Google can't host more webkit.org servers if
we want to. To get them added to webkit.org's DNS records we would just need
to ask on webkit-dev or ask Mark Rowe directly.
