* jsctypes binding for djb nacl crypto implemented and working in firefox/jetpack (on linux)
*
* indexeddb database abstraction works (passes tests).  Has to live in a content page because of JS compartment implosions if you try and steal a copy.
* addon data pipeline established, with a hidden frame holding the encryption, web sockets and indexdb work. A page worker bridges the UI in a browser window to that hidden frame.  Use "about:dd" to see the UI.
* Initial updated styling from Andy applied. Initial name collection and browserid assertion grabbed and simulated to data frame.
* development UI created by stealing previous Thunderbird hometab work.  Does almost nothing right now, but intended to allow driving/stressing/introspecting the backend in ways that having nothing to do with the desired mobile UI UX.  Use "about:dddev" to see the UI.
* hacked up logging UI created by reusing ArbPL/arbitrarypushlog UI for unit test output.  Provides direct access to client daemon logs at "about:loggest".
* 'define-server', 'run-server', 'nuke-server' commands hooked up and appear to work (accessed via cmdline shell script accessing rdservers/cmdline.js)


=== Next up ===

* Build/bundle nacl crypto libraries for all supported firefox platforms, dynamically locate inside the XPI.
*
* Have the UI do real identity creation with crypto keys, establish server connection to the identity.
* Ability to add/connect people for messaging.
** Need hacked up exposure of self-ident blobs so the client can populate a list of people to connect to.  (Not the steady-state solution.)
** Moda query population for requests needs to be finished/tested.
* Messaging data via UI
** Moda query population for conversation blurbs/in full needs to be finished/tested.

Paladin is an initiative by the Mozilla community at the intersection of 3D gaming, JavaScript framework and library development, and the browser.  We're tied into the bits of the web that are up-and-coming, and intend to weaponize them for gaming.  And where the web is missing critical gaming support, we aim to fill those gaps.

Three pieces are already spinning up: a framework written in JavaScript to support 3D gaming in HTML5, a first game to help drive development of that framework, and web joystick and mouse-lock APIs for Firefox.  The framework currently offers 3D rendering via CubicVR, physics by ammo.js (a cross-compilation of Bullet), loading via require.js, and sound.  More subsystems are likely to be up and running before too long.

Status Update 2011-09-05

Betafarm

Betafarm is an effort to create a single home for Mozilla Innovation projects. It is a website that will promote projects from Mozilla Labs, the Mozilla Foundation, Mozilla Research as well as the larger Mozilla Community. Users of the website will be encouraged to get involved by being able to track Mozilla events and respond to challenges (specific calls to action \-\- see the Knight Mozilla News Partnership). The larger goal being explored is to create a social, engaging web experience for people interested in innovation at Mozilla.

Deuxdrop

Experiment in private messaging between one or more people using encryption and allowing for federation. Focused on mobile first, with shorter on-the-go messaging, but the platform should allow for longer form messaging later.

The mobile target is similar to BlackBerry Messenger or iMessage, but using an encrypted/federated back-end and a web-technologies based "smart" client (eventually PhoneGap style, current targeting a Mobile Firefox add-on).
