  > I never said that it wasn't. I said that it wasn't going to be shipped as a production Mozilla product. That's also not true. Maybe it will, maybe it won't; that's a decision that has to incorporate many factors other than technical ones. From my point of view as an engineering lead, I'm designing the engine to ship.

    One key difference here is that this keeps Servo open to continuing to be a research vehicle for new technologies without the exposure of compatibility for millions of users. If we ship Servo in a product that does change the equation a bit.

      I think part of what pcwalton and metajack are getting at is that Servo isn't "just a research vehicle" but rather intends to keep seeking adoption. I don't believe adoption and research are nemeses -- in fact, I'd say adoption is a core part of Mozilla Research's MO. I talked about this a little bit in a talk I gave this summer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OHcJzJQ2Nk https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9OHcJzJQ2Nk
