I'm not too concerned about the landing schedule here as I don't expect to see OMTP landing too soon (though mwoodrow has surprised us before.) We should have plenty of runway between the required Layers work and OMTP.
Let's put OMTP (and prerequisites) on the next Rendering call agenda. This should be a lively discussion. --Jet ----- Original Message ----- From: "Milan Sreckovic" <msrecko...@mozilla.com> To: "Matt Woodrow" <mwood...@mozilla.com> Cc: "Robert O'Callahan" <r...@ocallahan.org>, dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org Sent: Tuesday, February 12, 2013 6:50:42 AM Subject: Re: Off-main-thread Painting I think we need a stronger statement than "worthwhile" in this: It would be worthwhile to wait for the Layers refactoring to be completed to avoid too many conflicts. when it comes to actually landing code. Something like "we should" or even "we must" comes to mind :-) That doesn't preclude conversations, design, etc., we just can't afford to delay the layers refactoring.
