Subject: [ann] |mach bootstrap| for mobile/android has landed!
Date: Tue, 23 Dec 2014 15:23:54 -0800

Hi folks,

Following up on my blog post [1], I just landed Bug 1108771 [2] on
fx-team.  The patches implement |mach bootstrap| for mobile/android, at
least on Mac OS X and Debian-like Linux systems.  We have some
additional
tickets filed for supporting other Linuxes (it's relatively easy to add
support and I will mentor and review).  Try it out!

I've completely over-hauled the Building Fennec documentation at [3] to
focus on the case where |mach bootstrap| works.  I've also simplified
and
removed what cruft I could identify; and I've focused on first Mac OS X
and
second Linux hosts because those are our two largest developer
populations.

Please point folks trying to build Fennec to that documentation and feed
back whether bootstrapping is working in the wild, and whether we need
to
add new platforms.  And please let me know -- or better yet, correct the
wiki -- if I've removed essential information or added incorrect
information.

Let's make 2015 better for ourselves and our community!
Nick
