AmigaOS 4: Porting WebKit started
According to George 'walkero' Sokianos in his recent Ko-Fi blog entry, he has frozen most of his projects to devote himself entirely to porting WebKit to AmigaOS 4. The goal, he said, is to provide WebKit as a dynamic or static library that can be used in any kind of application such as a new web browser or email client.

Since this involves a mountain of tasks that is almost impossible to keep track of, he has gathered a small team around him and divided the tasks into small intermediate steps.

The starting point was the WebKitty port used by the Wayfarer browser under MorphOS, which was created by Jacek Piszczek, because in his opinion MorphOS and AmigaOS 4 are very similar as operating systems. He has created a fork of WebKitty and set up a project so that everyone can take a look at the progress and status of the port. They are also using the repository's wiki pages to document as much as possible.

He said he wants to work hard on this and see where it leads. If nothing tangible comes out of it, at least the efforts will be documented and someone else can continue the work at some point. (dr)
