In the early days of rapid release, we switched the default behaviour of
(some) add-ons from strict compatibility checks against Firefox (and
other toolkit-using application) versions, to compatible-by-default.
This was to make life easier for add-on authors and users.
We were worried that we
Hi everyone,
I mentioned already [1] that I will be at the upcoming C++
Standards Committee in Issaquah, Washington (near Seattle)
next week. I thought I'd mention it again in a new thread
to make sure people who might be interested don't miss it.
See this thread [2] for my report on the last Com
The C++ Standards Committee is aiming to standardize a 2D
drawing API in the post-C++14 timeframe. A study group
(SG 13 - Graphics [1]) has been created to investigate
possible approaches.
SG 13 is considering using Cairo as the basis for a
lightweight C++ drawing API [2] [3]. The idea would b
It seems to me that we have arrived at the conclusion that a good drawing API
should be mostly stateless (like Moz2D), instead of Cairo's stateful API. As a
result we are currently removing all uses of the Cairo API and we will
eventually remove Cairo from our codebase altogether (in favor of D

Looks awesome! But... (there's always a but)

I've already given my feedback on the cairo mailing list. Summary: Moz2D is
the right thing for us, and probably for other application frameworks, but
for applications that just want to draw their stuff on the screen or to
print, cairo might be a better fit. Anyway ti doesn't really matter to us
