One of the cool things to come out of yesterday is Apple's adoption of KHTML and KJS for use in Safari and thus the resources of Apple being directed towards improving these two technologies, now called WebCore and JavaScriptCore by Apple.
Interestingly, JavaScripeCore makes use of the PCRE regex library which will hopefully (or does?) make it generally accessible to other applications.
And finally, check out this email from Don Melton , an Apple engineer on Safari describing Apple's commitment to KHTML and KJS (thanks George!) loosely describing their integration process and future plans. This ought to be interesting.
