So I've started a pad on this here https://webrtc-apps.etherpad.mozilla.org/109
It's in markdown format and is a bit more comfortably readable as rendered html
here (frozen state):

Any feedback, thoughts are welcome.
This is a really helpful analysis; thanks for writing it up!
Since we're trying to get a fast start here, rather than trying to have
all these discussions at once (and since a number of them are clearly
not in the MLP scope), I'd suggest that we start with the highest order
bit, which as far as I can tell (both
from my gut and from our earlier discussions this week), is the MV* stuff.
I talked to Adam a bit about the security context today, and he
suggested assuming for now that we're likely to get good enough security
code partitioning that we'll have the option of moving forward with
Backbone or something like it if that makes sense.
My understanding (which may or may not be correct), is that there is no
particular framework for B2G apps generally, and that each one does its
own thing.
The reason I think talking to James is likely a good next step is
because I believe he has insight into more than one such Gaia app
solution, and he has insight into
non-B2G stuff in this space as well.
I'd love to try and get the three of us on a call tomorrow if we can
make the timing work. I'll send out an email to see if he might be
available for such a thing. But feel free to check for him on IRC if he
happens to be around before I'm up. (He's often in #gaia as
lightsofapollo).
I've been told that tofumatt on #webdev has a bunch of experience with
backbone on mobile as well, so you might check in with him too.
