Mozilla Development Roadmap Updated

yota writes: "The guys at mozilla.org just published an updated development roadmap with some interesting thoughts about what will happen after Mozilla 1.0 will be released. Enjoy!" This is worth reading even if you skim toward the bottom and jump to the Intertwingle link. The Mozilla project isn't slapped together -- this kind of forethought and explanation is proof.

    The Oprah browser sucks. Montel and Rikki are far better, although Rikki has quite a large memory footprint...

    In my opinion the new Oprah still has a large footprint altough it was even larger in version 1.x. If Oprah managed to downsize maybe there is hope even for Rikki. Rikki is especially good on the discussion groups - but funny thing: you always get flamed!?

      admittedly the new Oprah is a lot less bloated than the original.

    IE may be a bit easier to run, but there is not this HUGE gap you posit. The real question for me (and, I hope, most /.ers) is whether convenience is what I care about. Is bloatware better than well written code? Do you care?

    Are you willing to lend support to a system you know is currupt for the sake of a little convenience? In general I understand that the US population says yes, but to hear this sad opinion voiced here is nothing short of dissapointing.

    When will people learn? doing nothing isn't just a tacit voice for the status quo, but an active opposition of change, and as Morpheus says in the matrix "many of them are so inert, so hopelessly dependent on the system that they will fight to protect it."

    No... not slapped together. Carefully and fearfully glued together, balanced on a sharp precipice over a steep cliff, yes. :)
