This week, we merged 60 pull requests.

Selector matching has been extracted into an independent library! You can see it here.

We now have automation set up for our Gonk (Firefox OS) port, and gate on it.

• Jack Moffitt added a visualization of parallelization in effect when rendering pages.
• Manish and Lars added ./mach build-gonk to automate building for Firefox OS
• Edit Balint implemented canvas pixel manipulation.

Meeting

Minutes

• Rust in Gecko: We’re slowly figuring out what we need to do (and have a tracking bug). Some more candidates for a Rust component in Gecko are an MP4 demultiplexer, and a replacement of safe browsing code.
• Selector matching is now in a new library
• ./mach build-gonk works. At the moment it needs a build of B2G, which is huge (and requires a device), but we’re working on packaging up the necessary bits which are relatively small.
