Are there official Firefox OS builds for the Raspberry Pi 2 available?

October 2014 saw a new round of propaganda about Mozilla's interest 
in/commitment to the Pi:

http://www.zdnet.com/article/mozilla-wants-firefox-os-to-have-a-feed-on-raspberry-pi/
http://news.softpedia.com/news/Mozilla-Wants-to-Bring-Firefox-OS-to-Raspberry-Pi-463323.shtml

It would seem that this was nothing more than an attempt by Mozilla to get 
volunteers excited enough to generate some meaningful momentum and Mozilla 
itself wasn't ever intending to put significant resources into a Pi build. 

I'd love to be wrong but it would seem all that manifested from this was a 
loose set of goals which never got any resources:

Then there was the seemingly isolated case of Panasonic deploying Firefox OS 
within their TVs:

This seems strange since:

Bug 1072148
Trying to output to a display at 1080p resolution causes b2g to crash
Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX 

Can anyone with shed official light on Mozilla's real commitment level to the 
Raspberry Pi?
