I feel like the answers provided here up till now are too simple. I believe we have projects at Apache which seem to be using, or have used Webkit: ( https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-232?jql=text%20~%20%22webkit%22 ) * Flex * Myfaces * Shindig (?) * Cordova * Wave * Corinthia * Netbeans * Apollo
I'm not completely confident of that list, since some of these projects may be running *in* webkit-based browsers. It's hard to determine for certain while skimming Jira issues in projects I'm not involved in. : o) So please don't treat this list as authoritative. But if I'm reading that correctly, there are already several Apache TLP projects which use Webkit. So this question may have been seen before. Justin, one of the projects which seems to currently be using Webkit is Flex. Given the weird part-by-part licensing, how did Flex justify it's decision? Or am I misreading, and Webkit is just an environment for Flex? My hope (probably too naive) is that if Weex is using only the part of Webkit that can be accessed via BSD-licensed headers, that that is enough to say they are using only a BSD-licensed run-time dependency. But if it's all open source, one possibility is to build a Webkit binary without the LGPL parts. I haven't looked at how nice their build process is. Building webkit without certain parts might be hard. YorkShen's suggestion to replace Webkit might be easier. Your thoughts? Best Regards, Myrle
