Hi Jörg,

thanks for your introduction and your plan to port WebKit is a very noble
one. I would like to help with this, but I can not before April next year.
Are you aware of the Nirvana project on Berlios? <www.berlios.de>. You will
probably find the code in the lemmon branch very interesting.

Jörg will be working with me on this port (though at this point I'm
mostly researching the possibility.) I've seen Nirvana but I feel
porting the latest WebKit is better for the future as it will be
easier to keep the BeOS version in sync with the Mac and Linux
versions.

These are "build tools" for which the code is actually part of the Haiku
source tree. You would need to copy the source of those, or modify the
Jamrules (Ingo would know which one) so that it just uses a prebuilt version.

I can probably help with this too. Jörg feel free to email me Jam
questions, especially related to the WebKit port :)

Regards,
Ryan
