Please direct all e-mails to the list. Yes, I'm working on webkit/gtk for win32. If you want a version that basically works, look at http://sourceforge.net/projects/gnucash/files/gnucash (unstable)/Win32 Build Dependencies/webkit-1.1.5-win32.zip which is a version I got from the net a few months ago. There could easily be lots of problems with it, but I have been using basic functionality. Two known problems: 1) loading images using file:// doesn't work. This may be a mime-type problem (see the webkit-gtk mailing list archives). 2) If I try to print, the font is *really* small, as though it takes 10pt and prints 10px.
I starting trying to build using mingw on winXP. I then switched to fedora 11 running in a VM, since fedora 11 has some pre-built mingw packages. Some packages are not yet at the right version required by webkit, and fedora 12 has some newer packages, so I updated some packages and disabled some version checks. I was able to build successfully. However, when I try to run the unit tests, they all fail (I get a dialog pop-up stating that the threading library has not been initialized, even though the first line in the unit test is a call to g_thread_init()). I am now trying to reproduce my build back on mingw on winXP.
