→Difference between this effort and Mozilla2
- Could someone tell me the difference between this effort and Mozilla2?
''From Jean-Marc Desperrier:''
Well, there no relation :-) Mozilla2 is about making major change in the Core (the low level part shared between all mozilla.org applications) to support new advanced functions. Between two release of an application, it's difficult to make such change, that involve a significant risk of unstability. OTOH not doing that means the evolution of the soft is impaired, and it will keep forever some code whose shortcomings are well known, and that at the end more time has been spent correcting that would have been needed to write again better.
; Mozilla2/Gecko 2.0 : If Moz2 is about Gecko shouldn't this process be named Gecko2? Or by retaining this designation is MoFo deliberately causing confusion, forcing the suite to use another name?
: ----[[User:Jmdesp|Jmdesp]] 03:54, 6 Apr 2005 (PDT) the comment by Kroc Camen nicely complements what I said, but it has a an error. Moz2 is not Gecko2. Gecko is only the rendering engine, and the subject covered in Moz2 include many things that have nothing to do with rendering. In the current list of topic in the wiki entry about Moz2, only ImageLib+GFXResearch+Web Forms 2 are related to Gecko, the other are core elements completely outside of it.
