Screen sharing is a free, open project that will bring peer-to-peer real-time audio, video and data to the web without plugins, using open web [[standards]]. Checkout the [http://www.webrtc.org/ WebRTC project page] set up by Google for interesting links and details.
==Project Status Updates==
*Firefox 33
**Screen Sharing on all Desktop platforms, except Mac 10.6 and WinXP
***Note: "Loop" client will leverage screen sharing in a future revision - it does not use today
***Those platforms need to set a pref for Screen sharing. It was disabled by default because it was crashing automated tests. If there's enough interest, we may work to get them working in later, and of course contributors are welcome to work on getting 10.6 and WinXP enabled by default if interested. =]

==Project Status Updates==
*Firefox
**The Nightly build is the best place to see how Loop is leveraging the webRTC capabilities in the Firefox browser. This project is under active development.
*Firefox 33
**Made OpenH264 codec available as a plug-in for all platforms, except Android
**Started experiments with an app (project name "Loop") to demonstrate and test webRTC on Firefox
**Exposed user prompts for video & audio access and "remember my selection"
**Worked with server teams to establish communication infrastructure
**Tested and improved many aspects of the webRTC implementation
**Screen Sharing on all Desktop platforms, except Mac 10.6 and WinXP

*Firefox 34
**"Loop" will be getting an updated look - though still in early experimental stages (Beta)
**Support switching cameras without renegotiation (using new Track-oriented APIs from the W3 spec)
**Automated client tests started to improve development speed / regression detection
**Simple feedback form at end of call
**Localization improvements (RTL mode support, process for L10N on stand-alone client, etc.)
**Focus on increasing call connectivity successes (ex: across firewalls)
**Added channels to expose more detailed conversation error & status notifications to the user (connecting, disconnecting, failed+why, etc.)
**Features are being added to Nightly that will be uplifted to Aurora to release with Fx34
***ex: Ability to Authenticate and add/maintain Contacts is being worked on still
*Firefox 35
**"Rooms" design changes are being broken down into the work needed to implement.
**Work week on multi-streaming - so expect updates to come in that area.
*FxOS 2.0 will ship with webRTC capabilities & H264 support
*FxOS 2.1 supports the new webRTC capability to change between front and back cameras.
