- remcob 3y agoWebKit was more or less ‘stolen’ from KDE’s KHTML and KJS. They forked it, developed it in secret, and did not publish anything until it diverged so far from source that it could not be merged back in. While technically legal, it definitely goes against the spirit of open source. LLVM is a better story: also not invented at Apple, but they hired the core developers to continue working on it.
