Gtk 2.2 and Webkit to use Aqbanking 5 on Windows - How can I contribute?
As Phil and Christian discussed already in: https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-devel/2010-December/030585.html
and as Christian told me today in: https://lists.gnucash.org/pipermail/gnucash-de/2011-February/007824.html
Gtk 2.20 is needed to use Aqbanking 5 which has great new improvements.

What we need is webkit/gtk compiled for win32 using the mingw environment. webkit can be compiled for win32 (obvious since that is the engine used by Google Chrome).
I've downloaded the latest stable webkitgtk-1.2.7 from http://webkitgtk.org/?page=download and gave it a try on my Windows/mingw system, where I also usually build a gnucash windows binary.
