David Baron's weblog: The age of bugs

by karlcow

Lately, I've seen some people criticize Mozilla because a particular bug (often a request for a new feature) that they care a lot about hasn't been fixed, on the basis that the bug was filed some number of years ago (generally more than five). I think this line of criticism is undeserved and seriously misguided. People who make this argument are, effectively, criticizing us for our openness.

Hey David, We have exactly the same critics at W3C. When a spec takes a lot of time, or things are not solved right away. We have tons of reproaches, because the information is accessible.

Javascript Differences in Mozilla Firefox and Internet Explorer « explore.net

by karlcow

Internet Explorer 4 introduced the document.all DOM (document object model) to allow access to the various parts of the web page. Soon after that the standard DOM method getElementById was introduced and is therefore available in all version 5 browsers. This means that the document.all references are only needed to support IE4.

Feature: Create Distraction-Free, Customized Webapps with Prism

by sbrothier
Among all the projects available at the Mozilla Foundation, one little application, Prism (formerly known as WebRunner), hasn't gotten much attention. Understandable, in a way, because Prism seems like just a stripped-down Firefox window in which to view web sites—which it is, but that can be a great thing. With the help of a few utilities, web applications in Prism can be just as convenient to launch and use as your standard-installation desktop programs. Let's take a look at where Prism really works and how to get more out of it after the jump.

David Baron's weblog: Teaching to the test

by karlcow

We're not planning to cram a bunch of Fixes into Firefox 3 since it's almost ready, and cramming features in at the last minute risks hurting other Web standards support or hurting some of the other things that make Firefox a great browser.

oui. un discours réaliste (bien que nouveau) qui prend en compte tout le contexte. Cela me rappelle une anecdote d'une amie. Au Canada, elle pratiquait le karaté. À la fin de chaque année, elle était préparée pour passer l'examen des ceintures. Au Japon, elle a repris les cours à zéro. Le maître propose enseigne la technique et la philosophie du karaté et les individus ne se présentent à l'examen que quand ils sont prêts. C'est toute la différence entre passer le test Acid 3 avec hack ou pas, et implémenter sérieusement la technologie en étant sur de ce que l'on fait. Et je trouve, dans ce cas ci, la démarche de Mozilla et son changement de discours plutôt bien.

Regarder les communautés évoluer est toujours intéressant. Que ce soit celles du w3c ou ailleurs. Complexe. Y participer, c'est accepté d'avoir les mains sales ou alors on est un sombre ignare idéaliste.

A propos d'Acid 3 - Standblog

by karlcow

projet Mozilla se focalise sur la sortie prochaine de la version 3 finale. En effet, ce qui compte pour Firefox actuellement, c'est de se concentrer sur les bogues bloquants pour obtenir un produit le plus stable possible[1]. […]C'est tout à fait ça : ces tests ne sont pas équitables, mais ils sont mieux que rien.

Intéressant changement de discours chez Mozilla, plus près d'une réalité commerciale… ou disons plus près des contraintes de Microsoft et de sa clientèle.
