Interesting to read the many comments on this. It's utilising Webkit as a 
rendering engine (also behind Safari and Konquerer 4), which is BSD and LGPL 
licensed. In turn Google say they are licensing Chrome as Open Source, meaning 
depending on the actual license, items like V8 (http://blogoscoped.com/google-
chrome/17) & other bits (http://blogoscoped.com/google-chrome/38) can be 
utilised in other browsers.

Interesting times and certainly more compelling and forward-thinking than 
"Compatibility View" ...

Cheers
James
