SUMMARY
Good afternoon: I’m on the promotions team on the Haiku project. We rely pretty heavily on QT and WebKit for much of our software. WebKit1 is integrated pretty tightly into our default OS web browser, WebPositive. We have found that it is a huge challenge porting the latest versions of WebKit onto Haiku, and were hoping for help from the much-larger KDE project. Haiku leans heavily on C++ and has Posix compliance. Haiku is not a *nix. I, personally, and not a programmer, but I can help direct you to others who may be able to answer questions. These include our current WebPositive primary developer, PulkoMandy.

We think this holds a lot of value to provide additional variety for the software world in general.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
OS: Haiku R1/Beta 3 or Nightly Rolling Release. Haiku-os.org
