WebCore open source changes

[Maciej Stachowiak]

Dear KHTML Developers,

As some of you already know, the Safari team has had plans in the  
works for some time to make our code more available and to engage  
more fully with the community. Now that these plans have been  
announced at the Apple World Wide Developer's Conference, I would  
like to share some of the details.

Here is what we're launching today:

* Full CVS access to WebCore and JavaScriptCore, our frameworks based  
on khtml and kjs. This includes all past history.

* Open source for WebKit, the Objective-C API on top of WebCore which  
also includes some of our engine logic and support for Mac OS X  
technologies.

* A new website for open source development at <http:// 
webkit.opendarwin.org/>.

* A new public bug tracker hosted at opendarwin.

* A new public mailing list, webkit-dev at opendarwin.org, for  
development discussion of WebKit, WebCore and JavaScriptCore.

* A new public IRC channel - #webkit on irc.freenode.net, the same  
network that hosts various KDE and KHTML channels.


And last but not least, we are going to make much more of an effort  
to be open in our development and engage with the community. You will  
be able to find us on IRC and on the mailing list, and we will do our  
best to keep communication going. We're very interested in working  
more closely with KDE and doing a better job of sharing changes in  
both directions.

For more details on all of these changes, visit <http:// 
webkit.opendarwin.org/>.

Maciej Stachowiak
