Epiphany turns 7

December 24, 2009 General 5 Comments

Seven years ago today, the Epiphany webbrowser was first released. In the mean time, the project has had three maintainers and in the past year it has been rejuvenized by switching from the Gecko to the WebKit backend.

At the WebKitGTK+ hackfest that took place last week (covered by Xan, Reinout, Alex, Gustavo, and Christian, among others) some big steps were made to make sure that Epiphany 2.30 will be a completely state-of-the-art Gnome web browser again. In the mean time, if you’re feeling adventurous, you can always test the latest development release and report bugs as you find them.
