This Week In Servo 69

It compares Servo daily builds against Firefox for page load on a subset of the Alexa Top 1000 sites. Check it out!<p>I don&#x27;t understand the graphs under the link. Under all colors it says &quot;servo&quot; and &quot;linux64&quot;. So what is Firefox (gecko), what servo?

Hey, maybe this isn&#x27;t the right place but i wouldn&#x27;t know where else to ask this question:<p>I&#x27;d like to get into Rust development and maybe help out with Servo (because it seems like an awesome project) but i have very limited experience with c&#x2F;c++ (arduino and openframeworks). What is a good way&#x2F;place to get comfortable with Rust?<p>(I am using Windows, can you even develop with Rust on Windows?)

Does anyone know what is on Y axis in comparison graph? Is it load time in miliseconds? Are green and red lines for Firefox and others for servo? Servo is written in every case there, but green and red have &quot;gecko&quot; prefix.

It&#x27;s really just an announcement of an announcement. Or charitably, a confirmation that they don&#x27;t plan on missing the June release date.<p>I&#x27;ve been checking their mailing list and bug tracker and saw nary a peep about the alpha, so it&#x27;s good to hear something.

Servo is using zero-copy parallel parsing of html, css and parallel rendering, right? Is it trying to reduce in-going data duplication? Any insiders (actually understanding this questions ;) who can comment on this?

&gt; June is also when the first Rust code ships in release Firefox!<p>Anyone know what Rust code is shipping in Firefox?<p>Source: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.google.com&#x2F;document&#x2F;d&#x2F;1JMOtVkRtb-s7auoQdnX810HGglkMK054LTXOo0_rdrU&#x2F;pub" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;docs.google.com&#x2F;document&#x2F;d&#x2F;1JMOtVkRtb-s7auoQdnX810HG...</a>

In their blog post, what do they mean by &quot;public domain list&quot;?

Are they doing security testing as they go? I&#x27;m really looking forward to seeing how it fares against the typical &quot;use after free&quot; javascript errors that pwn to own always demo&#x27;s. I&#x27;m not particularly a fan of Rust, but I certainly like the ideas that they are trying to incorporate in it.<p>Great stuff. Looking forward to see how it evolves.

Really looking forward to trying out the browser.html tech preview! Especially since it seems to have native support for a vertical tab layout with autohide!

Totally irrelevant: But did anybody else notice &#x27;(John) Connor (Kate) Brewster&#x27;?

Is this the browser.html that is referenced? <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;browserhtml&#x2F;browserhtml" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;browserhtml&#x2F;browserhtml</a><p>`Browser.html: an experimental browser UI for desktop.`

No. The blog post says to <i>expect</i> the announcement later this week.

I&#x27;m not a Mozilla fan at all, but the Rust and Servo team certainly don&#x27;t fuck around.

Servo would be more compelling for use with commercial software if had MIT or Apache license. The MPL isn&#x27;t as bad as GPL but still isn&#x27;t as generous to the developer as MIT or Apache. With the right license, Servo would be a slam dunk for replacing CEF in commercial software that prohibits reversing or tampering.
