• Default Browser Follow-up

    First, to get the formalities out the way, Firefox remains the default for 13.10. Second, I’d like to talk about the Chromium issues raised. It was rightly pointed out that there have been issues keeping up with Chromium changes. The big issue was with Web Apps integration and some changing APIs. Since we’ve introduced Web Apps changes like this have always caused us some grief. Web Apps have always been an interim step until we were able to get a more self contained web apps container. That work is planned for 13.10 and progressing well[1]. This should be done for 13.10 and very much refined for 14.04. Lastly, I do want to consider Chromium by default for 14.04 once the above is no longer an issue.

    Visiblement ils aiment Chromium chez Ubuntu :

    I sincerely believe Chromium is the better experience for general users and should be strongly considered for our next LTS.
