Jetpack and making the UI world adopt HTML5
,----[ Quote ]
| I have many things to say about Jetpack. I like its power, I dislike
| its syntax. I _really_ dislike its syntax. I think it totally misses
| its main goal, making extension authoring dead simple instead of
| recreating another programming elite. I also think the integration
| of XHTML elements inside a XUL-based UI raises strong UI homogeneity
| issues (because they don't flex, align or pack like XUL elements)
| and could severely harm the UI coolness factor of the whole user
| interface.

Firefox shifting support from extensions to jetpacks
,----[ Quote ]
| Following a long discussion about Firefox Themes vs the new Persona
| technology, Mike Connor from the Firefox team explains on his blog why
| Firefox plans to migrate developers from the current theme and extension
| systems to personas and jetpacks. Since we are a Firefox extension,
| you might wonder How will this affect Firebug?

No shocker: Google prefers HTML5 to Gears
,----[ Quote ]
| Word from the LA Times is that Google plans
| to phase out its Gears plug-in in favor of
| HTML5 when it comes to augmenting browser
| abilities. The precise details of its
| enthusiasm for the plug-in aren't clear
| yet, but the general trajectory is no
| surprise.
