Webkit
The webkit rendering plugin for liferea is now available in unstable. It has missing features and crashes not-so-rarely. But it renders properly (and I rather like how it loks, actually) everything I’ve tested with it so far. Please help us get it into a releasable shape by testing and reporting bugs, but do be kind to us and try to see if the bugs are in liferea or in webkit itself, by using /usr/lib/WebKit/GdkLauncher on the relevant URL.
Many thanks are due to Lars, our very excelent upstream.

Waw, rendering is just instantaneous ! Liferea doesn’t look slugish like it used to be !

If it crashes inside WebCore/WebKit please use http://bugs.webkit.org to file bug reports and make sure to use the “gtk” keyword.
thanks

Patches for the missing functionality in WebKit that prevents some functionality in Liferea to work are on the way. Last week I proposed a link hovering patch and a good solution was merged to the source. As soon as it is out working I’ll try to push forward the other missing features (focus, context menues…) too.
