Hi all!

In the WebKit homepage, one of the projects that people can contribute
is to integrate the existing Gtk port into the source tree. I suppose
the "existing Gtk port" is the Gtk-Webcore" port
( http://gtk-webcore.sourceforge.net/ ).

This is a pretty old comment and I think is now somewhat out of date.

What is the relation between this port and the existing Gdk port? Should the gtk port replace the current existing gdk stuff? Or both need to be
maintained?

If someone wanted a nice Gtk-based WebKit, I think the steps would be:

- Add a Gtk-based API layer on top of WebCore, like the mac WebKit or WebKitQt. Probably this would offer a GtkWidget that embeds HTML.

- Finish unfinished parts of Gdk port.

- Add a form control theme that matches Gtk to RenderTheme.

I don't know that the old Gtk-webcore code base would help that much.

Maciej
