It's not bad, but I think it's unfortunate that nobody is working on it. The sooner that HTML5 features are implemented, the better. I thought that posting it here would get some eyeballs on it!
- MatthewPhillips 14y agoI think it's fair to say that Mozilla is focused on the web as an applications platform, hence stuff like this: https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI I'm ok with these input fields getting put on the backburner because they're easy to polyfill, for example this: http://frankyan.com/labs/html5slider/ http://frankyan.com/labs/html5slider/ works perfectly well in Firefox.

- Osmose 14y agoThe fear is that posting a bug like this on a social network will result in a bunch of people commenting on the bug about how this needs to be our new #1 priority or how we're just too slow. While both are perfectly valid criticism, bugs just aren't the best place to bring that up. I posted links to the mailing lists in my other comment; if you haven't already, posting a thread to them asking about the priority of the bug would be a good way of getting the attention of a bunch of devs and planning people at once.
