Re: Should cheddar-generated headers be checked in?

I think running bindgen at build time will be the best practice. That is certainly what stylo and the spidermonkey bindings are aiming for. This capability of bindgen is pretty new, so it will take a while before the Rust community adapts. jack. On Wed, Feb 22, 2017 at 8:49 AM, Ted Mielczarek wr

There is this bug which the Cargo team is planning to work on to help with these problems, but it hasn't been implemented yet that I know of. https://github.com/rust-lang/cargo/issues/2649#issuecomment-279615299 jack. On Fri, Apr 28, 2017 at 11:28 AM, Bobby Holley wrote: > I definitely made thi

Specifically for webrender (and anything else under the servo org on GitHub), you can just file a bug and assign to edunham and we'll fix that up. jack. On Thu, Aug 31, 2017 at 10:25 AM, Kartikaya Gupta wrote: > Do we have a policy on CI coverage for vendored rust libraries? I'm > concerned for

Re: Intent to Use Counter: Everything

We have the Chrome popularity data, and we have the Edge team's data which covers the CSS spectrum quite well. I think it would be far more useful to start covering the DOM API spectrum. For example, it's pretty clear from existing data sources which CSS properties Servo should focus on. But we ha

Re: Proposed W3C Charter: Web Performance Working Group

Many of the proposed output specifications for this seem quite useful for the kinds of work we are doing in Servo. While this is aimed at web developers, it seems very useful for browser vendors to be measuring things the same way. Having standard ways of doing this means we'll be able to get more
