<html> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="Content-Type"> </head> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" text="#000000"> Aloha I would like to inform you all about the following points: 1. We have registered our project Sugarfox (TM), publicated on the 9th of October 2013 ([1]), at Mozilla Firefox OS and its related marketplace with the creation of a partner account for our company with the following short description: Sugarfox brings the learning environment Sugar in its web version based on HTML and JS together with the Firefox OS. 2. To port Boot to Gecko (B2G) respectively Firefox OS on X86 was already started around the year 2012 by some Mozilla supporters (actually looking for the old informations led to [2]). 3. Because you are developing Sugar Web Activities on the web browser (rendering) engine WebKit, it might be better to take our other proposed project Boot to WebKit (B2W; [3]) for a fully HTML, CSS and JavaScript based Sugar, though this should not be needed at all due to the interoperability of the applied web technologies. Personally and honestly, I am not very interested in programming for Sugarfox, because of another related project that is the updated respectively extended version of B2W now called Boot to WebCore, which should get our C++Core based on the Cling C/C++ interpreter besides the still optionally available JavaScriptCore. For sure, this could become another option for the Sugar learning environment. Nevertheless, you can ask me everything related with software technology, software architecture and so on.

B2G always felt like the perfect platform for it, if not because it wouldn't (fully) work on a normal Linux distro. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Hugh Tay <<a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:hugh@hadronization.com">hugh@hadronization.com</a>> Date: Tuesday, 25 February 2014 Subject: [b2g] Introducing B2G to x86 To: <a moz-do-not-send="true" href="mailto:dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org">dev-b2g@lists.mozilla.org</a> Hello everyone, I would like to initiate a new open-source community project to port FireFox OS to the Intel/AMD x86-64 platform. I'm thinking along the lines of the port for RasPi that Oleg Romashin developed - executing Gecko on top of a vanilla Linux kernel with only the essential drivers/libraries loaded. Supposedly this method would let us run FF-OS on an x86 PC like other Linux distros; e.g. Ubuntu, Fedora; just that its UI would be Gecko instead of KDE or Gnome. This way we should also be able to reduce our dependence on Android as the backbone of FireFox OS. Perhaps further down the line we could also take advantage of UEFI booting and B2G in < 10 seconds? Would anyone be interested in contributing to this effort? Looking forward to an exciting time ahead!
