Earlier quoted context omitted.

There are no concrete plans for that either.

Thats literally the point of using a strangler pattern. Concrete plans lead to making hard to change decisions before you need to.

Well, then there's no way to tell whether they're using the strangler pattern, or simply not replacing Gecko with Servo at all. I find the former to be highly unlikely though, given the amount of work that would entail.

There is a lot of Mozilla brigading on these articles, so I think it's important to point out that they're in a very small minority. The vast majority of developers have already voted with their feet on this and the results are in: People don't want Firefox. We want Chrome. Furthermore, practically nobody is wringing their hands over having a possible "mono-culture" and neither should they be. That's just another Moz…

Interesting observation Wayne. The lack of a rebuttal to the facts presented here, in addition to this comment holding the prestigious bottom slot seems to underline your assertion in a spooky way.

I wonder how many people you need to over-represent a minority mind-share on other topics here...
