Slashdot: The Unforking of KDE's KHTML and Webkit Begins

"... Ars Technica is reporting that after years of existing seperately, KHTML
and Webkit are finally coming back together. "In open source terms, this
may be as big of a deal as the gcc and egcs merger of yonder days. KHTML
and Webkit are definitely coming of age. The KDE developers, responsible
for the original creation of KHTML, are dedicated to seeing this unforking
happen and are taking a leading role in that effort."

ars: KDE goes cross-platform with Windows, Mac OS X support

"The KDE development community's adoption of CMake is another major factor
that has contributed to the increased portability of the desktop environment.

KDE's build system was previously based on Autotools, an intractably arcane
and grotesquely anachronistic cesspool of ineffable complexity that makes
even seasoned programmers nauseous. The migration to CMake instantly
simplified portability issues because CMake has very robust built-in support
for generating makefiles for widely-used compilers on all three major OSes.

CMake can even automatically generate project files for commonly-used
IDEs like KDevelop, Visual Studio, and XCode."
