The wiki page doesn't do a good job explaining it, but what they're aiming at is mobile devices. Essentially they want a phone that replaces every native functionality with html/javascript. So a web application would be your phone dialer, a web application could access your NFC chip. All of the capabilities they're going for is stuff that's in the pipeline in W3C, they want to create an OS to accelerate the process (and create new standards as well).

#7How well is it going to be received compared with the level of effort required? ChromeOS is pretty bad and Google has been working on it for a long time.

#8I realize they can do more than one thing at once but how about getting threaded tabs into a current build of Firefox first. Coders talented enough to make an O/S certainly should be able to make threaded tabs happen.
