Hi,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The reason for not whitelisting QtWebKit is a bit different here: that we don’t want to promise an API that we cannot promise to continue to support. While QtWebKit may continue to limp along for a few years yet, it has been removed from upstream webkit,
and has no real active maintainers that I am aware of. The unfortunate reality is that we are not in a position where we can take on the sole maintenance of a web engine (which is a rather large and complex piece of software).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We do offer SilicaWebView (in Silica) as a component that does not expose any engine/implementation details (meaning that we can change the implementation to use QtWebEngine, or Gecko, or whatever suits us / works best for the purpose). It should be good
enough for simple cases. If you’re lacking something from it, please ask away :)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>BR,</div>
<div>Robin</div>

<div>One of the rejection messages I've got in harbour is the following:</div>
<div>-----</div>
<div><span style="color:rgb(119,119,119);font-family:'Source Sans Pro',sans-serif;font-size:20px;line-height:20px">In ./usr/share/wikipedia/pages/MainWikipediaPage.qml the 'QtWebKit 3.0' </span><br style="color:rgb(119,119,119);font-family:'Source Sans Pro',sans-serif;font-size:20px;line-height:20px">
<span style="color:rgb(119,119,119);font-family:'Source Sans Pro',sans-serif;font-size:20px;line-height:20px">is not allowed</span><br>
</div>
<div>-----</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Is WebKit really not allowed? Just double checking as I thought that it's API/ABI is to be very stable at the times when it's going to retire - <a href="http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2013/09/12/introducing-the-qt-webengine/">http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2013/09/12/introducing-the-qt-webengine/</a> (thanks
to John Brooks for quickly locating the link).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Shouldn't QtWebKit import be whitelisted?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
