GTK+ Kimmo Kinnunen wrote yesterday on the GTK+-WebCore developer mailing list that he has imported the Safari 2.0 WebCore branch into GTK+-WebCore. "This means that from the webcore/javascriptcore part, the code is mostly the same as in current Safari. So if there are any crashes, they're not from webcore/javascriptcore part of the codebase with very high probability, rather my code."

As Dasher42 posted, this is quite significant from a purely software development perspective, but as a web developer it's also pretty interesting: one of the better light-weight free (beer/speech) rendering engines out there (‘better’ in that it balances standards-compliance and being lightweight very well) is getting a broader appeal.
