Re: webkit in konqueror!

That's what I would imagine. Personally I'd continue work on KHTML and stuff out Webkit. "Just" port over good features and the like. What I mean is that KDE has got total control over KHTML, its quality is very high and improvements can be made. I don't know about the quality of the source code as I'm not fit to judge that. But I keep my word on that I've yet to come to a site kthml can't handle since... well, probably KDE 3.4.
Not sure if some parts of the KDE project realize that KDE is made by people and people, as such, can get demotivated, angry, etc. If I was a khtml dev I would feel as awkward about trying to shove in Webkit as a kdelibs guy would feel if a different libs infrastructure was pushed in too.
How is Webkit going to be maintainable at all if it ain't provided by apple as a maintainable piece of software?
So I ain't a KDE dev, but the more I think about Webkit and KDE, the less sense it makes. I think whoever's working on Webkit kde is just wasting time they could be using into something more productive (let it be improving KHTML itself, or getting on with their own lives). The "choice is good" argument is a bit weak here. I've got a choice already: Firefox. |
