I believe this is pretty much the definition of "fear, uncertainty and doubt." Let's not spread it around.
Google already basically ran their own fork of WebKit — it most definitely was not the same codebase in Chrome and Safari. Now they've just made it a clean, official one. Let's not freak out about problems that may never exist and certainly don't yet.
- tambourine_man 14y agoThey shared WebCore: pretty much all of HTML, CSS and JS parsing and CSS positioning. That's most of what a front-end, PSD2HTML kind of developer has to worry about. So yeah, they will probably differentiate even more now.
- schrodinger 14y agoI don't think it will be that bad. WebKit is already pretty well established, when they're this far along I doubt they'll diverge much. For the most part, even Firefox and WebKit render the same, even though they have no common lineage. This isn't going to be like IE6 vs Firefox.
