Hi
By using FF one day we'll have this.

I doubt that we'll ever have JITed Javascript in FF (although never say never).

The initial excitement around tw has passed. The development seems to have halted.

I know for a fact that Timberwolf development has not halted.

That is good to read. My post simply states how it seemed. In fact I have had confirmation from the Friedens that work continues! Happy days and thanks to those involved.

FireFox is a big program, you should not expect updates too often, its probably lots of fixing to get one singel version ported over.

The title of the thread is 'Lack of progress', in truth its more a case of 'Lack of new news' as 'progress' is an unknown variable to those outside the circle.

@djrikki That is a good point. A blog following the ups and downs of TW dev would be welcomed.

Quote:

You prefer that they waste their time doing a blog instead of coding?

No, that some one within the "circle of trust" writes it. There are plenty of bloggers in that circle.

Quote:Well, I guess if your definition of plenty is two, of which all are either called Thomas or Hans-Jörg?

Don't confuse the Timberwolf project with anything to do with official Hyperion/OS4 business.

Best regards,

Niels

Thanks Niels, I did forget that TW is NOT a Hyperion project.

I hope your doing well Thom and are no longer sick.

As someone who also struggles with health problems that affect how much time I can use a computer, I hope you are feeling better and have no more limitations on the amount of time you can do your coding work.

Take care, and get well soon, if you are not already back to 100%.

Hi Thomas

I wish you all the best and hope you recover your health soon.

The wish I have is that in your healing momentums you can fly to another lands and plug the Amiga flag on earth

All the best for you and your brothers and hope you can get again soon to your usual Amiga coding activities that is the best you can do it for ours and you.

I smoke too and have to recover my health but that's another history of mine.

Thank you Thomas!!!

How does anybody know the status of health and FF coding ?? - i mean neither of the brothers says anything. And it's been nearly a year since ssolie said work was ongoing...hmm

Yes I would love an up to date maintained Timberwolf there are some nice plugins I would like to try on a hardware accelerated Timberwolf.

Hmmm no answer for you Hondo I sincerely hope that Timberwolf has not been shelved because of Oddysey.

@Fairdinkem

More likely it's on the back burner now that the Friedens lost motivation and there is a working stop-gap alternative.

@trixie

Are you speculating that they have "Lost motivation" or do you know something we don't ?
