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."

Im so impressed with kde and gnome they are working together a more.
Seriously though, the cross DE stuff is nice. DBUS, Webcore, etc. Yay!
Somehow it's fitting that the first KDE tech I can remember Gnome adopting came through Apple, Gnome's inspiration for simple and easy. Now I wonder if pressure will increase for KDE to drop KHTML and use Webcore. It's totally shallow, but I'd prefer KDE to use a KDE lib instead of an Apple one even if the ancestry is the same
maybe KDE should take the plunge and implement gconf
I'm not so sold on this one. Maybe you can convince me? People are scared of a "registry" sometimes, though obviously gconf isn't a big binary blob, but rather XML. I'm still not convinced that XML is the greatest way to store settings (as opposed to a more easily human readable flatfile). Instant Apply is nice, but one doesn't change settings all that often. Leaving aside my preference for flatfiles, what's the benefit of two DEs with mostly unrelated programs using the same config backend? Enlighten!
And yeah, GPLd Java will be nice. I've messed about a bit with Trolltech's Qt bindings. It was a bit annoying relearning stuff from Richard Dale's earlier bindings for KDE3, but I managed to get an app ported over.
