Apple is to reward some lucky users who took part in its WebKit Open Source
Project with MacBook Pro Computers and all-expenses paid invitations to its
Worldwide Developer’s Conference 2006.
Twelve MacBooks will be given to its top open source contributors, while
another five will receive invites to the developer conference.
Apple started the WebKit Open Source Project in June 2005, inviting
contributions from users globally. The contributions have helped Apple in
developing future releases of Safari and WebKit.
Within its thank you note to contributors, Apple listed a handful of the
improvements which non-Apple contributors have made. These include:
The entire webkit.org infrastructure, including nightly builds and the
buildbot
JavaScriptCore that matches up with KJS
Fixes that were formerly only in KHTML and KJS in the KDE source tree
SVG support in WebKit
Improved structure of DOM and auto-generated bindings inspired by KDOM
Text layout and rendering improvements, including excellent right-to-left
support
