Hi, Enrico! Right now, I think that the best strategy for the B2G OS effort is to continue to be powered by Gecko and to pick up Servo components as we upstream them there through the Oxidation effort.
In the short term, Servo's priorities, especially around device support, rely on APIs such as OpenGL ES3 that are not available on current B2G hardware. While we may expand that support in the future and would love to support B2G OS more directly again if things pick up around it, today we do not have the capacity to support it. - Lars On Thu, Mar 17, 2016 at 3:32 PM, Enrico Ghiorzi <enrico.ghio...@gmail.com> wrote: > As well known, Mozilla has discontinued Firefox OS development for > smartphones.
