Are there any sites with runnable Servo binaries? Or is it seriously just the engine with absolutely zero browser chrome?

  We have no browser chrome, for two reasons: (1) Browser UX research isn't part of the research agenda for Servo at this time. (That isn't to say we aren't interested in browser UX research at Mozilla, just that that isn't being done under the Servo project.) (2) It helps to ensure that we are embeddable. We want Servo to be an embeddable Web rendering engine for people to use in their own projects.

    embeddable. Wow. This was what Gecko was hoping to achieve and failed to do so. Lets hope the second time around everything will be much much better.

      Whilst it may not be as easy as you'd like Firefox definitely is embeddable. My company use it in our desktop photo application.

      There's also a chance that they'll adopt the Webkit embedding API, which would make Servo a drop-in replacement for any software that currently uses Webkit. Though it hasn't been decided for certain whether to pursue this route.
