WebKit working on QNX via qtwebkit [pic]

  This is definitely the most shallow comment I have made, but: what a deeply unfortunate application icon.

    :) Yah it could use a better one or at least tweak the legs. Propose a better one and i'll post it on the arora-dev mailinglist. Originally it was suppose to be a sleeping polar bear, later on we noticed other interpretation :)

    It could be worse. http://www.geticeweasel.org/ http://www.geticeweasel.org/

  I know you mention it in the post, but goodness gracious the wasted toolbar space! Can you trim it down and take a picture of a rendered page? I'm curious how well it renders stuff that is modern/complex/tricky.

    Checkout the link to the video it shows some rendered pages scrolling. Edit: I didn't take the photo, just got it from someone who had the device and took a minute to try loading it for me.

  Webkit is everywhere and it's great! Now if we could just get IE and Firefox to use WebKit for rendering :), it would be AWESOME!!!

    and then when a vulnerability is found in webkit, it will affect everyone at once. awesome!!!

      So should we come up with our own openssl libraries while we're at it? Not saying I disagree or agree with you, but it's more complicated than 'diverse = good'.

  Always feel sad for QNX - it was (and still is) a very lightweight Unix-like OS with a sense of actual design, particularly around the package management tools and graphical interfaces. If they Open Sourced it, it would have been the next Linux, if they had found a good partner (like Apple after Be wanted more money) it could have been OS X. Alas, hardly anyone's using it.
