Apple's WebKit Trademark Filing Challenged by Research in Motion - Patently Apple
Summary
WebKit was originally derived by Apple Inc. from the Konqueror browsers KHTML software library for use as the engine of Safari web browser, and has now been further developed by individuals from the KDE project, Apple Inc., Nokia, Google, Bitstream, Torch Mobile, Samsung and others. But something went wrong at the junction and at one point KHTML developers said they were unlikely to accept Apples changes and claimed the relationship between the two groups was a "bitter failure." This is why this out-of-nowhere letter of opposition by Research in Motion (RIM) to the Canadian IP Office, as indicated in-part below, is most interesting.
