Good timing - I just updated the issue tracking this project (https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/11444) with a comment pointing at the latest abandoned attempt to implement it. You would be welcome to work on it! I don't believe any extra information about the architecture of a web browser i

Thank you, I looked a little through the project and the presented code. It looks very hard but I feel pretty confident. But I also need to talk with my professor. Otherwise I will like to take it. 2016-02-26 16:19 GMT+02:00 Gervase Markham : > On 25/02/16 18:43, Josh Matthews wrote: > > Hi Radu

Hi Radu! Sorry for the delay in proposing anything; unfortunately we've been coming up with a lot of projects for students recently and didn't have any unclaimed ones to suggest immediately. I propose implementing an HTTP cache for Servo. This is something that I started back in 2014 but never

I looked thought the source code, and documented myself about browser development. Even if I am new, I could be able to do something from there. Off-main-thread HTML parsing or rust gc object hooks looks like an interesting subjects. Or maybe you could suggest to me a feature that I could pursue.

To be fair, the Starters page isn't scoped for the amount of work that Radu wants to take on (the original emails mentioned working on a project for a professor and linked to the Student-projects wiki page), and https://github.com/servo/servo/wiki/Remaining-work isn't very useful yet as a refer

Radu, I'd suggest looking at https://starters.servo.org/ and https://github.com/servo/servo/wiki/Remaining-work to see whether any of the tasks that we've already identified as needing contributors look like a good fit for your skills, interests, and timeline. If none of those tasks seem appropr

Radu, It's not clear from your emails whether you're volunteering to take on the project discussed earlier in the thread, or looking for one of a different scope. You can find a variety of small to medium Servo tasks listed at https://starters.servo.org/ and a list of more major projects at https

At least in Gecko, the media stack is somewhat intertwined. I know we were planning on lifting at least the media playback pieces from Gecko into Servo, so it's worth considering the implications there. I've also heard it suggested several times that Gecko might be interested in building a WebAudi

Anyone interested in implementing WebAudio and/or WebRTC (in Gecko there's some overlap in the underlying infrastructure) should first spend some time discussing the architecture with Paul Adenot (look for padenot on irc). Having a competitive or even just decent WebAudio implementation is more com

Hi Radu! Of the projects listed in your message, only the focus, form validation, and image load projects are still unclaimed and valuable. That being said, what are the academic requirements for your project? What's the timeline for working on it? Cheers, Josh On 2016-01-05 8:09 PM, Radu Man
