The bigger point here is that this is part of a CFP from Mozilla Labs
for contributions from designers for whom the normal open source
contribution channels are a bit challenging:

This is an interesting change, especially in light of Matthew Thomas'
recently published hard-earned insights into UX and open source. My
commentary at http://surfmind.com/muzings/?p=161
On another meta point, the Adaptive Path video is an exceptionally high
fidelity UI prototype & scenario depiction, apparently with a tangible
Flash based release coming soon. It seems to me that this really rich
form of product pitch is very cool and potentially a great driver of
product leadership decision making but actually is not enough to really
form a contribution to open source without more formalization of the
underlying task models and adaption to scenarios other than the ones
pictured.

I have to say there are so many elements I like about this concept and
it is only part 1 of the video.
Kudos to Jesse James Garrett and the rest of the AP design team on Aurora.
Check out the demo video of their browser concept video.
