[webkit-dev] Moving WTF out of JavaScriptCore (revisited)

[Adam Barth]

As discussed previously, I think it would benefit the project to move
WTF out of JavaScriptCore:

Previously, we've been unable to do this because of Apple's internal
build process.  In thinking about this problem again recently, I
wonder if the following would work:

1) Move JavaScriptCore.xcodeproj from
Source/JavaScriptCore/JavaScriptCore.xcodeproj to
Source/JavaScriptCore.xcodeproj.
2) Change how Apple submits JavaScriptCore to the internal build
process to submit Source as the code for "JavaScriptCore" instead of
Source/JavaScriptCore.
3) Move Source/JavaScriptCore/WTF to Source/WTF.

Mark, do you have a sense for whether this plan is feasible?  If not,
is there another approach that would work better?

(If my understanding is correct, we could also apply this approach to
the other xcodeproj files, which would let us get rid of
ForwardingHeaders and move Source/WebCore/platform to
Source/Platform.)

Thanks,
Adam
