Last day of the hackfest

Today was the last day of the hackfest. We’re all tired.
Behdad and Evan did more work on Harfbuzz integration and can now show kerned text created by the new text layout engine.

Kerning in WebKitGTK+ with Harfbuzz

Dan made a patch so that WebKit no longer eats about: URLs.
Diego worked on reinstating the safe/unsafe mime types code.
Gustavo enabled the Page Cache that we thought was enabled all along (!).

Mario worked on fixing a regression with regard to toggling image zoom. I’ll leave the last word to him this time!.

    Back from the WebKitGTK+ hackfest…

    I have been very busy during the last week, during the WebKitGTK+ Hackfest in A Coruña kindly made possible by Igalia, Collabora and the GNOME Foundation. The Igalia Office is a very nice place to be productive and relaxed. It was an exciting time and …
