I really think you guys should just get started. :-)
From what I can tell, the projects (Nirvana?) are not active. I tried to get
some information late last year, and some people tried to be helpful, but I
couldn't get much done in terms of getting the already ported code from the
Nirvana repo (Java Script) to compile. In any case, I have high hopes for
such a porting effor of WebKit, and I'd like to help as much as I can.
However, I am of no use with regards to gory build system issues. So after
someone could get the infra structure setup, I'd like to help as much as I
can. Though currently, my time is limited to the weekends at most. But like
I said, I'd like to join once an infra structure is already in place. Please
use jam if you can.
Best regards,
-Stephan
