Back from JSConf EU and other travels, the minute with team is happy to return with a special episode from Brendan about the new Boot To Gecko (B2G) system. This is targeted to allow users of mobile devices to boot directly to a Gecko based browsing interface and to run web applications. It is really doing some stunning work around the new web APIs and privilege model that all developers should be aware of. Enjoy!
- Mobile discussions (more about Mozilla's mission)
- Boot to Gecko wiki
- JS APIs for cameras, USB, and possibly Near Field Communication (NFC)
- HP WebOS
- ChromeOS
- Brendan discusses the benefit of coop-atition between webkit and gecko, working together and keeping separate is a good thing.
- Nitobi
