Hi,
  Is there someone can tell me how to change the ICU libraries as the
icudt36.dll is too large?
  If this can do, how many files should be modify and what are the main
files?

Best wishes

I'm interested in trying to add PPC support to the native code generation
recently added, but I have a few questions. First, am I correct in thinking
that some refactoring needs to be done before other architectures can be
supported? Things like X86Assembler and whatnot seem to be architecture
specific and would replicate code if an *Assembler was added for every
arch. Is this being worked on, or would I have to do it as part of adding
PPC support? Second, a bit of an overview on what would need to be done
would be nice, since I've never worked with the JSC code before.

We plan to do the refactoring as we add new architectures. The best  
person to talk to about that is Gavin Barraclough. The next  
architecture on the roadmap is X86-64.

I sent this message to the mailing list yesterday, but it seems it

Hi Kevin,

The original message did make it to the list, but no one replied.

I think the best approach is to simply create a bug on bugs.webkit.org and
attach a patch for review (since the wx port is apparently the only one
"feeling the pain" right now :).

Hello Guys,

i want to ask, does webkit supports unicode? If not, is it possible to 
interfere it with python to support unicode?

waiting your reply,

Yes. Are you interested in some particular aspect of Unicode support?  
I'm not sure how Python could be related to your question.

Good evening WebKit crowd,

I came around a page using SVG on the iPhone today, and I'm puzzled -
it actually displays SVG content. That means, iPhone supports SVG?!
Since when is it included? Must have been the last firmware update 2.1?

It amazes me that I've not read an announcment anywhere about this.
Would be great if someone from Apple could comment.

Greetings,
Niko

Yes, SVG was enabled in iPhone OS 2.1.

Hi Alexey,

the problem on the iphone starts to appear with arabic, farsi, and 
bangali website. Characters appear unconnected to each other without 
letter shaping.
Could somebody give me a tip on how to fix it?

thanks in advance,

regards,
Sherif

Understood. You can report bugs in Apple products at
http://bugreport.apple.com 
  and that's the best thing to do about this case. But I happen to  
know that this is a known and understood limitation in current  
versions of Safari on iPhone.

> Could somebody give me a tip on how to fix it?

Fixing it is up to Apple's iPhone team.

As a WebKit contributor there's nothing you can do or need to do to  
get this fixed. WebKit already has what's needed.

Hi David,

Okay, will do! Thanks, and sorry for the spam. I didn't see the  
message in my own list archives, which is why I thought it never made  
it. Now I just have to figure out what happened on my end. ;-)

Since this change builds ok on other Windows-based ports, in my  
opinion it would be better to fix the Wx port's build system than to  
change the header name or class name.
