As much as I would like to see you succeed, I'm afraid I agree with
Fabrice. The previous technical direction we were taking is a dead end, as
I've explained in this blog post
<https://medium.com/@bfrancis/the-story-of-firefox-os-cb5bf796e8fb>.

FWIW I've also been experimenting with the approach Fabrice describes, with
Webian <http://webian.org/>. I'm trying out qbrt
<https://github.com/mozilla/qbrt> as a desktop runtime and GeckoView
<https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/GeckoView> for touch devices, with the
intention of running the system UI as a single Android app on top of
Android Things and system services running on NodeJS. This is the direction
I would recommend anyone still working on B2G OS to take.

(BTW Webian Shell <http://webian.org/shell/> is mostly a personal
experiment by me to play with my own browser OS front end, not an intention
to fragment B2G OS).
