[Ham-Mac] Safari Bug?

[Stephen Hellyer]

If you would like to follow the trials, tribulations and joys of  
writing not only Safari but also Webkit (the API which allows  
developers to get web page rendering basically for free... Webkit is  
also the used for Widgets and iTunes and more).  Then have a look at  
these blog which hold the comments of the lead developers at Apple.

http://webkit.opendarwin.org/blog/

You will find an older archived (< July 2005) BLOG here http:// 
weblogs.mozillazine.org/hyatt/

Webkit/Safari (http://webkit.opendarwin.org/) are also based on open  
source work KHTML/KDE so contributions flow back and forth from Apple  
and that community.

This may not interest to many but interesting read perhaps to some  
about some of decisions made and for what reasons.

Filling in the Bug reports is a very good thing!!!  They all get  
looked at! They are very interested in hearing and correcting problems!
Easiest way to report a bug is to go to that web sight and under the  
Safari menu select "Report Bugs to Apple...". Very easy as Safari  
will do all the work of generating the needed tech info the bug  
report you just have to type a description of the issue.
