Hi Webkittens, During the last weeks, people interested in using or experimenting with Nix have been asking us about the upstreaming process, how long Nix will be supported, etc. The answer has always been in the lines of “we're working hard to make it last for a long time” -- and that was true.
However, now we have a definitive answer, as this week we were notified that the resources of the Nix project will be redirected to other areas/projects. In practice, it means we won't be able to keep our efforts with its development and the upstreaming process and all activities related to Nix are going to stop by the end of this month[1]. We are going to remove Nix from trunk in the next days but the code will remain on our usual github[2] page, for the interested parties. If you have any question or specific interest on Nix, please don't hesitate to contact us. We would like to thank especially the Szeged team for developing new features, tests, bugfixes, Benjamin Poulain and others from the Apple team and WebKit community as a whole for reviewing and supporting the upstreaming process.
