  Definitely not.  It is a new approach to try to just take WebKit as-is and 
then put some of our patches into it, and only work with the other WebKit 
parties (Apple included) as -equal- partners, as I mentioned in my original 
email.  "tight control of Apple" is absolutely unacceptable to me as I'm sure 
it is to you.

  Good, I want things to be clear too.

  "Unity" was chosen by me because the ultimate success would be one unified 
engine, I think.  It's just a code name for the work we did.
