Yes I rewrote the Curl code to use the new callback api's so you can use select in the main thread. Also the Pleyo people have done some work I've not fully integrated so their work is worth looking at. I ran into some issues and dropped back for the time being to a full load on each call. Its a

If we cannot reach a conclusion, the GTK+ port will most likely go ahead and switch to autotools. I'm one person with a highly niche port, but for what its worth I'd support a move to autotools. I'm doing a port to AROS, which currently means cross-building WebKit on Linux. I opted to use

I am working on a port of WebKit on Qt to a PowerPC platform. Please make sure that we don't break the Qt port in this switch. I am comfortable with autotools, so that is not a big deal for me. I am concerned, however, that this will cause a fork with the work being done by the

Hello, Here is my experience with cmake, so I hope it may help you to decide which build system is the best for you. Its first advantage is that it is cross platform. So you can imagine in a long term approach to have a unified build system between GTK/Qt/Wx/Win and mac. Another advantage is that

Ok, thanks for the feedback. I have had some issues with the cross- compilation of WebKit (dftables being built for the cross-platform, not the native platform). Any chance I can get someone doing the WebKit Qt port to address this? I don't know qmake well enough to make the changes.
