I think that has bern worling fine for us, no?
My priorities are getting webkit2 in a functional state. And also somewhat based off of your motivations, if I can get webkit2 to work nicely we can switch webpositive and no longer have to maintain webkit1, and have the option to upstream webkit2 which should make your job of just maintaining it easier.
I have made the odd feature addition aswell, and tried to improve rendering.
Though I certainly wouldn’t have been able to as easily without you maintaining the base! so thanks for that.
Keep in mind though that I am also happy to do haikuwebkit releases, I have permission from disroot to have a copy there, so I would tag it there and that version can then be be used from haikuports. (Only for the case of rebasing on upstream I don’t yet know how to nicely do this, but we can talk about that I reckon)
I have avoided doing that on my own because I don’t want to step on your toes, and you tend to make releases a bit quicker than me. (Also because I try to put changelogs on the forums, which isn’t always neccesary)
