1055319 - Add soft-start mechanism for Loop in release builds
In order to provide a controlled ramp-up of the Loop service once it gets into release (mostly to prove out server capacity at various load levels), we need to have some means of throttling its appearance in the release toolbar. This patch adds a set of "soft-start" configuration prefs that control when the "loop.enabled" pref transitions from false to true in release builds. Upon first run, the c

Watching commits to mozilla-central - staktrace.com
Posted by: stak Tags: mozilla Posted on: 2013-04-22 09:11:47 Something I've wanted for a while is a way to receive notifications of commits to specific folders in mozilla-central, with some reasonable amount of diff included. Well, turns out there are now a bunch of ways to do this, so here's a quick rundown. hgweb's Atom feed - I'm only including this for completeness, but you can get an Atom fee
The New Firefox Cookie Policy
The default Firefox cookie policy will, beginning with release 22, more closely reflect user privacy preferences. This mini-FAQ addresses some of the questions that I’ve received from Mozillans, web developers, and users. How does the new Firefox cookie policy work? Roughly: Only websites that you actually visit can use cookies to track you across the web. More precisely: If content has a first-pa

The Safari cookie blocking policy is quite straightforward. 1) if an origin is first-party, it has ordinary cookie permissions 2) if an origin is third-party a) if the origin already has cookies, it has ordinary cookie permissions b) otherwise, the origin gets no cookie permissions Here's a sketch of what migh
DMD – Nicholas Nethercote

But in order to understand DMD, you first have to understand about:memory. about:memory The MemShrink project started about 18 months ago, and it has been very successful in reducing Firefox’s memory consumption. about:memory is MemShrink’s not-so-secret wea
Congratulations on IE10: from Mozilla with cake
Back when Firefox 2 was released (six years ago this week!), the Internet Explorer team started a friendly tradition of sending Mozilla a cake as congratulations. This continued for Firefox 3 and Firefox 4. After Firefox switched from major releases once or twice a year to incremental updates every six weeks, they sent us a cupcake for the next few updates instead. :) I thought it would be fun to
Servo: a vision for the future of Firefox
Updates: 2012-06-28: Restructured much of the content, to make it easier to digest. 2012-06-27: New section “More information on Servo”. Recently, Mozilla stopped the Electrolysis project [1] that was to give Firefox per-tab processes. Hence, I was relieved when David Bruant pointed out to me that Mozilla haven’t given up on a parallel browser. They are working on a project called Servo which is b

Mobile Web API Evolution – Brendan Eich
Ragavan Srinivasan’s post about the forthcoming Mozilla Marketplace for Open Web Apps inspired me to write about Mozilla’s surging Web and Device API standards work. A bit of background. Mozilla has always contributed to web standards, going back to the start of the project. We co-founded the WHAT-WG to kick off HTML5. As readers of this blog know, we are a leader in JS standardization. We have so

Asa Dotzler: Firefox and more: Firefox in 2012
I've updated the Firefox strategy and roadmap document with our plans for the Firefox Desktop in 2012. It's going to be an amazing year with lots of exciting projects and products from Mozilla.
