Opera Patches for WebKit

    About five weeks ago, we  announced that Opera products would switch to WebKit. We said then:
    Opera will be involved in the development of Webkit and Chromium projects.
    We will continue to work on developing standards for the benefit of the web.
    Obviously, replacing the rendering engine became a serious task for our developers and we worked tirelessly to cross a new engine with a completely rewritten interface, introduce new features and test all this so that you can see the finished product as a result. By the way, have you already tried beta mobile Opera for Android 2.3 and higher ?

    But in this hard work, we have not forgotten about our moral obligations to develop the WebKit project. Here are some patches we sent to improve all WebKit browsers so that they better support CSS:


    There are several more patches to restore order in some parts of the WebKit code, see bugs: 112442 , 110123 and  110121 .

    In addition to this, we are now thinking about supporting the property object-fitand  further improving the support for multi-column CSS. So we are very busy, call back later.

    And as soon as the final versions of our products come out, we will tell you other news about what our improvements will return back to the general engine.
