- nwah1 7y agoThe Mozilla Gfx blog regularly posts updates. They have been porting subsystems from servo to firefox, and making substantial progress on a regular basis. https://mozillagfx.wordpress.com https://mozillagfx.wordpress.com
- Manishearth 7y agoVR is only part of the focus, we're still working towards a general purpose browser, it's just a slow and long process. Webrender is being actively worked on and is in the final stages of integration into Firefox (I believe it's enabled by default for some combinations of GPU and OS already). Servo's experimenting with a new layout system written from-scratch to be modular as well, and that's making good progress. (We're rewriting the layout system because the original one, while it proved that parallel layout was doable, wasn't very maintainable/extensible given that it was written through experimentation while the language itself was changing a lot. We now know how to do parallel layout, and writing a clean, modular, maintainable system will enable us to fill in all the missing features)
