I think I already explained in the past. ^_^ We already have **UA override**. Firefox OS: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/b2g/app/ua-update.json.in Firefox Android: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/mobile/android/app/ua-update.json.in UA overriding doesn't solve it. Sometimes it often creates even a worse experience for a user with a total broken experience. For example, making the UA of Firefox OS being Chrome and you get a totally unusable Web site, because Google expects it to be Chrome feature sets and rendering engine. See for example https://bug914252.bmoattachments.org/attachment.cgi?id=8689920 in the bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=914252 That said we (Web Compat) are working for months already with Engineering on how to remove the most important issues (implementing non-standards API, Aliasing some webkit properties, etc). **Once** these are in place, we will have a lot more flexibility on playing with the UA. You can follow https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1170774 to see our progress. Note that I'm happy to discuss anything about Google properties. I'm the Moz point of contact for all Web compat issues with Google. The discussion with Google is along two axis: 1. send a specific version to a specific UA string 2. fix the CSS/JS they send. The 1. is not very hard for them. The 2. has mostly been a no-no on many issues. But the 1. can't happen if the version we receive is worse than the version we were receiving initially. PS: Wilson, Let's meet in Orlando next week. Let's have a coffee or drink. And I will share and show you what our team is doing and the extent of the issues. -- Karl Dubost, Mozilla http://www.la-grange.net/karl/moz _______________________________________________ dev-fxos mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-fxos
