Rob Buis is a WebKit Reviewer

Posted by Maciej Stachowiak on Saturday, November 18th, 2006 at 3:17 pm

Rob Buis is now a qualified WebKit reviewer. Rob was one of the main driving forces behind ksvg2 and kcanvas, along with Nikolas Zimmerman. The code from these libraries has been integrated into WebKit to provide fully integrated HTML/SVG support. Since then, Rob has submitted many WebKit patches for SVG and in many other areas, including DOM, CSS, graphics support and general refactoring.

Please join me in congratulating Rob.

    Congratulations! It’s fantastic to see Webkit become larger and larger, and welcome more great people!

    Just a small suggestion: why don’t you all submit a short summary of who you are and put all of that info in a “Webkit team” page? There was a page in the wiki, but it seems very old.

    Congrats again!
