Team Priorities

At a high level, our team's top priorities right now are 1) improving Necko/Gecko performance and 2) supporting FirefoxOS.

This list is meant to keep track of work we'd like to get done as a team, in prioritized order.

Continue to develop Stone Ridge's performance testing capabilities.
Design and implement new HTTP disk cache.
Resolve NSS race conditions leading to instability and security issues.
658222: TLS False Start for SPDY
421128: Independent windows/tabs should not starve each other for network connections
791750: Make it possible to deliver stream data off the main thread
436414: OCSP client should be able to use HTTP GET as well as POST
773648: integrate libunbound for our own DNS host resolver
733647: Ship TLS 1.1 (RFC 4346) in Firefox, on by default
651246: Make libpkix-based certificate path building/validation the default in PSM
660749: (CVE-2011-0082) Firefox doesn't (re)validate certificates when loading a HTTPS page from the cache
793808: Add support for resized image proxy (reduce mobile bandwidth usage).
Add support for compressed HTML proxy (reduce mobile bandwidth usage).
562917: Captive portal detection
665707: Ability to attach arbitrary data to cache entries, such as decompressed image data for images.
480514: Implement TLS 1.2 (RFC 5246)
783205: In-browser networking dashboard
Work on a fundamentally better protocol, perhaps UDP-based.
Start work on Necko for Servo, written in Rust
