Hello Eduardo,

There is only one real WebKit project voted in. While it might have 
potentially found a harbour among Apple's slots as well I don't think it's 
badly placed within KDE either. The other WebKit-related project is more 
of a merging type and therefore considered to be very wortwhile for KDE 
and Konqueror in particular. I don't think that those two projects form an 
out-of-proportion voting result.

Your project did collect quite some votes and it's a bit of bad luck 
missing the line that closely. But then, you have left quite a few other 
proposals behind.

Harri.
