I know I'm pushing back on your suggestion, but I just want to emphasize that I find arguments like this extremely persuasive. I think you're absolutely right about the value of interoperability, and I'd love to see it extended to tools as well. We certainly need to find some way to make it happen. _______________________________________________ dev-b2g mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-b2g
