Err...wasn't "merging between khtml" one of the main reasons why WebKit was made available as open source, or did I miss something at WWDC 2005? Dave On Tue, Dec 06, 2005 at 02:10:02PM -0800, Eric Seidel wrote:
As I mentioned in my previous email to Alexey, I think there are smaller, cleaner ways of achieving the same goal.
Unfortunately the "it's hard to merge between khtml" isn't a very strong argument anymore, given how far we've diverged in the last 4.5 years. (RefPtr, #APPLE_CHANGES, JSC gc changes, QualifiedName being just a few on a long list).
The goal here is to make the source as clean and readable as possible. Perhaps then merging at a file-level (as we're currently attempting with kdom/ksvg2) will be a more viable approach.
