-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear ATFers,
As the primary clients of Mozilla's JavaXPCOM technology, I'm looking for nominations/volunteers for somebody to be maintainer of the JavaXPCOM bridge. Javier Pedemonte was formerly the module owner of JavaXPCOM in the Mozilla code. As far as I know, Javier is no longer available to maintain this code (he hasn't responded to the emails I've sent). As part of Mozilla's ongoing work to streamline our codebase and make it easier to maintain, we're planning on removing JavaXPCOM from the Mozilla core and have it be maintained as a separate project. I'm afraid that future releases of Mozilla/XULRunner will happen without a JavaXPCOM project and tools such as Eclipse which use JavaXPCOM will be stuck on older versions of Mozilla. If there were an active owner, I'd also like to explore other ways that Java could embed Mozilla without the complexity and instability from the JavaXPCOM bridge: perhaps something more like a Java<->JavaScript bridge or reusing the Java<->NPAPI bridge to extract information from Mozilla in a more stable way. - --BDS -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFKoWRdSSwGp5sTYNkRAltxAKCTdY9YPj7ehz8JUVNtOsETf+4zSwCfdBh+ o+xYt573mnpvtroO+GY+qZc= =dIq/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ atf-dev mailing list [email protected] https://dev.eclipse.org/mailman/listinfo/atf-dev
