Hi all, If you'd like to contribute to the B2G OS Transition Project <https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Transition_Project> it should now be possible for you to build and flash the transition branch of B2G onto an aries (Sony Z3C) device and get it to boot. Please see the wiki for some basic instructions <https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Transition_Project#Building_the_Transition_Branches>. (tl;dr: you need to build B2G with the pine branch of Gecko and kanikani branch of Gaia).
This should get you booted to the homescreen with a search bar, but not a lot else. We need your help <https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Transition_Project#How_You_Can_Help> to start to get things working with the new streamlined B2G architecture! For front end development you should also be able to get Mulet <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mulet> running with the transition branches with a few hacks, Alex is working on removing the need for those hacks. Work on getting working nightly builds is ongoing. If you'd like to learn more about this project then see the slides <https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1m1R2pslcoK8fuOT4FaYOFkt31pXqoBgXALJlRWhBHVs/edit#slide=id.p> of the B2G OS Transition Project kickoff. We're working towards a radically simplified and more webby B2G architecture which is closer to the Firefox browser and embraces new web standards. As always, if you need help head over to #fxos on IRC or ask on this mailing list. We have public meetings <https://wiki.mozilla.org/B2G/Meeting> every Tuesday. Thanks! Ben
