How is "on the web" not clear? Our mission is to promote the growth of the web, not native desktop applications. XUL is simply a means to an end that we use to produce Firefox. Promoting XUL does not help the web. XULRunner is an artifact of the process we use to build Firefox. It's never been officially supported, but we continue to release builds because people find them useful. If you're looking for a well-supported framework for building general desktop apps you should look elsewhere. -Ted _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
