Some of the issues raised surrounding supportability are reasonable, and I'm not best qualified to comment on them.
I do, however, wish to take exception to the "poor security record" comment. Firstly, any browser is really complicated so you have to statistically expect a bunch of security vulnerabilities over time. Secondly, Chromium stacks up excellently against the other browsers. I don't want to post them here, but I've run the stats. In particular, Chromium's sandbox means that there are not often "critical" vulnerabilities (and these are the ones that tend to really matter). Other browsers tend to spew out critical-level fixes on a regular basis. There are other factors. Chromium turns around fixes very fast. And if you look, you'll find a decent percentage of Chromium bugs found internally by that project and its associated security teams. -- [MIR] chromium-browser https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/522645 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
