This was a nice week in A Coruña, Spain. The WebKitGTK+ Hackfest went well I think :) The Igalia office is great for such an event, the organization/infrastructure was well done, the hotel near the office was awesome, what else? We managed to get things done code-wise! Even though the list is big some items were proudly erased from the TODO like:
- Dan started a rewrite of some parts of libsoup with gio and worked on the soup URI loader
- Xan and Gustavo worked on form authentication saving in WebKitGTK+/Epiphany
- Xan did some good progress on DOM bindings
- User-Agent support in Epiphany
- Page cache control support in WebKitGTK+ was merged by Alex
- Alex did some work on a11y support for WebKitGTK+
- Bedhad and Evan worked on Harfbuzz integration (instead of Pango)
- Reinout built a list of Epiphany regressions to fix
- Evan and Benjamin worked on improving the build process (size and time)
- Martin and Cody worked on ARGB windows support for WebKitGTK+
- Benjamin went on war against crashers
- and I worked on merging HTML5 video controls and the media tests
- probably a lot more I didn’t catch during all the discussions ;)
Still some work to do though, like for HTML5 audio/video support:
- on-disk buffering
- fullscreen view
- closed captions (this seems very specific to SMIL)
- pitch control (when scrubbing)
- enhanced controls UI
- and still some media tests to fix :)
So thank you to Igalia, Collabora and the GNOME foundation for sponsoring this event!
