Hi Firefox team,

I was going through the webpage 

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/Porting

I want to port the Firefox over Android Platform. I have got the Android source 
code ( version 3.0) 
Is it possible to port the firefox over this version.

I have got additional questions that I have specified below.


I could not understand below points

1. 
=================================================================================================================================
Add a new device to config.sh

The next step is to add a new device to config.sh; you can use the existing 
ones as a template. This basically involves providing the instructions for 
fetching the correct files to do the build.

=============================================================================================================================================

What is the purpose of adding the new device in the config.sh ?

2. 
============================================================================================================================================
Create the manifest file for the new device

Now you need to add the required repos to the manifest file for the new device; 
this manifest file is called default.xml. Refer to the b2g-manifest file on 
github for a template. Each device has its own branch; you can use the 
galaxy-s2 branch as a reference.

=================================================================================================================================================
What is the purpose of changing the manifest file

Thanks
Regards
Sobin Thomas

Subject: Re: Getting the source code for Gonk

Hi Thomas,

there is no single folder containing all gonk code. You can grep for gonk 
folders and some of the code is in gecko/dom/system or in gecko/hal for example.
Various files also contain gonk specific code. You can find it via 
MOZ_WIDGET_GONK.
afaik we are using version 3.0.21

hth,
-Gregor
