[webkit-dev] State of WebKit S60

There has not been a checkin to the S60 port in over 8 months:
http://trac.webkit.org/projects/webkit/browser/S60

As far as I can tell, the port is dead.

There are even 12 patches which were approved but never landed:

Does anyone know the status of the port?  IIRC, Nokia bought
Trolltech, so I expect WebKitQt is just going to replace WebKitS60...

If the port is in fact dead, I would like to suggest that we tag (with
some keyword, or component) all of the remaining S60 bugs and close
them.  I think it's important to actively close inactive bugs to best
maintain the health of the bug database.

The source files are already in their own separate branch of the
repository, so I think there is no harm in leaving the source code
there for now.

In the (unlikely) event of no replies, I will assume the port is dead
and will tag and close the bugs in 2 weeks time.

Thanks!
