It will enable the guts of layoutTestController to remain in the WebKit repository. This is just a variation of exactly what we do today. You only need to move creation of WebView to Chromium so that we can eliminate WebViewHost.cpp (and other "simple" application shell bits). -Darin > best > -jochen > > _______________________________________________ > webkit-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/webkit-dev > >
