tjr:
Last Week: - Mozilla All Hands - Learned a tiny bit more about Canvas Fingerprinting (namely that 40%+ of FF users on Windows already do software rendering) - Fusion stuff sent to the list - The sandboxing team would like to remove --disable-sandbox sometime in the future, so uplifting the sandbox patches is medium-term priority - There is early discussion about using a broker process (on Windows at least) which would enable flexibility to sandbox the parent process
