Webkit is the engine that drives Mac OS X's Safari web browser. A year or so ago Safari for Windows was released. Anyone who shuts out Safari users has at best rocks for brains. Same applies to moronic web developers who test for Safari instead of Webkit, as too often happens with sites testing for Firefox instead of Gecko. Such site breakage needs to be reported to those sites for the idiocy it is. IOW, not having Gecko should not be a problem. Webkit is good stuff whether it comes in a Safari wrapper or an Epiphany wrapper. -- "Train a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not turn from it."
