One concern I have is webkit 2 does not have complete feature list of
webkit1 yet. For example in version 2, we can not access WebKitWebFrame
object. We were using it, but managed to find workarounds. I don't know
how many other applications actually use it.
Personally we have moved webkit2. It is little more cumbersome to use
than older version and added some interesting complications to life.
However in general, I am noticing it more faster and having more useful
features. When compared with previous version, we have also noticed
higher number of crashes in v2, but they will stabilize/get fixed over
the time.
Gtk annotations is also important for others so that languages like
python can use it. But this raises a very interesting problem. If python
like language needs DOM access, how do we do it? There are lot of tools
out there that depend upon DOM access and use Gtk annotations.

Let's remove the code then. As I said people wanting to stay with
WebKit1 can use the latest release including WebKit1.
It seems like a lot of people are in favor of removing the code now.
We will continue to support WebKit1 for as long as we release the 2.4
branch (that may be 6 months or even a year). I think this is
suitable, as it will still be possible to use WebKi1 for some time. If
someone wants to continue maintaining WebKit1, they can submit patches
against the 2.4 branch. Is anyone opposed to this?
