Thanks, Chris (and Jason and Piotr).

Do let me know if/when the API is/will be supported. Like I said the app is 
currently running on all other mobile platforms as it stands, I don't really 
want to have to re-implement the local storage stuff.

Regards,

William

Subject: Re: [b2g] Firefox OS support for Cordova File API?

Hi William,

I have cc’d Jason and Piotr on this mail, as they know considerably more about 
the Firefox OS Cordova support than me. Guys, see Williams’s question below - 
have we landed support for the Cordova File API stuff? According to the 
documenttion, no:

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Apps/Tools_and_frameworks/Cordova_support_for_Firefox_OS

But this might be out of date now.

I’m happy to update the docs if needed, and also to explore this specific 
problem.
