WebKitGTK+ 1.10.0 is available for download at: http://webkitgtk.org/releases/webkitgtk-1.10.0.tar.xz (8.2MB) md5sum: 6da450ec7793c0a7873d8c8c2cae4eb8 sha256sum: 6db37376d387dcc980e5349a5a385d87d40909371796e3dd895817e466799034 This is the first release in the stable 1.10 series. IMPORTANT: The tarball has been renamed from webkit-x.y.x.tar.xz to webkitgtk-x.y.z.tar.xz to eliminate ambiguity with other WebKit ports. What's new in the WebKitGTK+ 1.10.0 release? ============================================ - Beta version of the WebKit2 GTK+ API: WebKitGTK+ 1.10 includes a beta version of the WebKit2 high-level GTK+ API. There isn't any backwards compatibility guarantee yet, but the current API is unlikely to change. The API is not yet complete for a full featured web browser, but is more than enough for applications that use a smaller part of the API. We encourage every application for which there's already enough API to be ported to WebKit2. - Accelerated Compositing support: WebKitGTK+ 1.10 includes support for accelerated compositing, which allows for 3D CSS transformations, as well as hardware accelerated animations. - Port GStreamer backend to 1.0 API: The Media player backend has been ported to the GStreamer 1.0 APIs. For the time being we keep supporting the GStreamer 0.10 APIs as well. Support for 1.0 can be enabled at build time using with the configure option --with-gstreamer=1.0. The WebAudio backend is not ported yet to the new APIs so if you need to use this experimental backend (which is not enabled by default yet) you need to make sure to build with GStreamer 0.10 support. - MHTML support: Now WebkitGTK+ based applications can load pages saved in the MHTML format. Additionally, WebKit2GTK+ based applications will also be able to save web pages using this format thanks to the newly added API for that purpose. - Geolocation support is now enabled by default. - The LLInt (Low-Level Interpreter) for JSC is now enabled. - Notable bug fixes: + The default Enchant spell checker now recognizes English contractions. + Input method support is greatly improved and the IME events sent to JavaScript more closely match other browsers. + Accessibility support has been further enhanced making it possible for screen readers to provide more complete and more accurate information. What is WebKitGTK+? =================== WebKitGTK+ is the GNOME platform port of the WebKit rendering engine. Offering WebKit's full functionality through a set of GObject-based APIs, it is suitable for projects requiring any kind of web integration, from hybrid HTML/CSS applications to full-fledged web browsers.
