Re: Et Mozilla Mail a déjà sorti ses nightly builds

J'ai tout relu, et je n'ai rien trouvé qui infirme ou confirme ce que tu avances : Dans la roadmap que tu pointes, dans la partie Discussion : Nevertheless, ignoring the valuable user-interface itch-scratching, and considering only the minimal set of goals for each application in Mozilla-the-application-suite, the cost of integration has been high. Unintegrated applications tend to be faster to load, smaller on average in dynamic memory consumption, and more robust and crashproof. Dans la partie Application Architecture : Both classes of applications will be able to make use of the Gecko Runtime Environment (GRE) to enable the sharing of a single installation of Gecko. Applications may even share profiles, although the inter-process communication work to support sharing profiles among applications running in separate processes is not done yet (as of 1.4alpha). et The idea is to move from the over-integrated application suite to simpler toolkit applications, to remove more advanced functionality from the default configurations, but to provide robust tools for building your own browser by layering those extensions that you want to use on top of the base. In an attempt to avoid an explosion of unique builds that have to be supported by mozilla.org, we will likely ship with all of the popular extensions installed but disabled, so that they can be easily turned on by those who wish to use them, and uninstalled by those who don't. Dans la partie "Why do we need a GRE?" de ton premier lien : The primary purpose a GRE serves is the need for multiple Mozilla based applications to share the same Mozilla distribution on disk. Without a GRE type infrastructure in place each Mozilla based embedding application is forced to provide their own private Mozilla distribution - even though an identical and compatible distribution may already be present on a system. With a GRE in place, an application's installer can check for the presence of a GRE (the application is compatible with) and if present use it simply by installing just the application specific files. If not, the installer can install both a compatible version of the GRE and the application.
