Week 09 updates on QtWebKit stable branches (v2.1 and v2.1.x)

QtWebKit-2.1 -- also known as "the never ending story" ;-) still has one blocker bug waiting for a fix, so no RC status yet. QtWebKit-2.1.x is still a bit far from release, as there is some Q&A effort going on and we expect to see more blocker bugs appear in the next weeks.

Again, remember these versions are targeted at Nokia devices (Symbian and Meego) and are not officially supported on other platforms. The next multi-platform official QtWebKit release will be QtWebKit-2.2, which is under development right now and will be part of the next Qt bundle.

Status below:

Week 08 updates on QtWebKit stable branches (v2.1 and v2.1.x)

QtWebKit-2.1 still has bugs blocking the release, so it'll take a while for it to be considered a release-candidate again. QtWebKit-2.1.x had a far amount of crash fixes and is moving, but the release date is not in the horizon yet.

Some people may have noticed that we already have meta-bugs for QtWebKit-2.2 (critical and non-critical). QtWebKit-2.2 development will happen on trunk for a couple more months before we create the stable branch and start making cherry-picks and weekly releases, so these meta-bugs are just for prioritization at the moment.

Finally, just to reinforce what already has been said in the past: the QtWebKit-2.1 versions (2.1.0 and 2.1.x) are internal Nokia releases and will not be supported or officially tested on desktop environments. QtWebKit-2.2, on the other hand, will be supported on all Qt platforms and will be included in the next version of the Qt bundle, so expect a much clear and transparent process on the development and stabilization of this version.
