OPEN SOURCE WEBKIT-BASED BROWSER REV’D
http://www.linuxdevices.com/news/NS9883020354.html
Pleyo and Sand-Labs.org have released a third-generation beta version of
their Webkit-based, open source browser for consumer-electronics
devices. Supporting generic GTK, Access Linux Platform, or SDL (simple
direct layer), Origyn Web Browser (OWB) targets consumer devices such as
phones, portable media players, and set-top boxes.

Hello,
I am an OWB developer. I’d like to add some details and also to
apologize about the enormous mistake in the linux devices article
about SDL acronym… Of course SDL is Simple Direct media Layer 
So OWB is actually a very minimalist browser. In fact our first goal
is to provide a better abstraction layer to webkit to ease webkit
portage and our reference implementation is SDL as it is portable.
Currently OWB is available on Linux and Mac (with mac port system). I
know that a guy is currently working on a Windows implementation and I
hope we’ll be able to quickly integrate his work.
The second thing to know is that webkit is not a browser. It is just a
web rendering engine. So thanks to OWB API (based on webkit windows
API), you should be able to display any web pages in your SDL
application. Note that I have a lot of work to do about that in order
to simplify link mechanism.

This is kind of exciting to me, because I thought it’d be cool to tie
in Wikipedia and Wiktionary information into Tux Paint. A kind of
"learn more about…" button for the 100s of stamp imagery we have.
One day… :)On Mon, Jul 28, 2008 at 05:06:02PM +0200, Oliver Dole wrote:
