Not the right alias for this, follow-ups set to desktop-discuss...

We're already porting WebKit to OpenSolaris (which we're doing because  
GNOME is probably going to have a dependency on it in the 2.28  
timeframe), so that'll be an important first step.  I don't know how  
hard it'll be after that, but I'm sure somebody will have a go and let  
us know :)

Cheeri,
Calum.
