Collaboration and Rivalry In WebKit

An anonymous reader writes "An unconventional article on the development of the WebKit project was just posted to the arXiv. Those guys data-mined the WebKit source-code change-log with Social Network Analysis. They claim that even if Apple and Samsung fight each other with patent wars in the courts, they still collaborate in the WebKit community. The report provides a different perspective from the Bitergia WebKit analytics. Some interesting polemics regarding Apple, Google and Nokia participation in the WebKit project are also highlighted in the paper. There are some nice figures capturing collaboration and rivalry in the WebKit community."

Sadly there is no blink tag support in Blink

Which is why we all need to band together and start a class-action lawsuit over this blatantly fraudulent promotional tactic ;-)

I always enjoy propaganda pieces masquerading as posts. What's next, a nice painting called Flowers For Theo?
