Firefox on N9 run with gstreamer backend

Just compiled version of Mobile Firefox for N9 with gstreamer support.

With small patch it actually works just great.
Package for N9 available here:
http://romaxa.info/fennec/14-gstreamer/fennec_14.0_armel.deb

Tested on:
http://camendesign.com/code/video_for_everybody/test.html - h264 video http://jplayer.org, also tested with mp3 simple test page http://romaxa.info/tests/mp3/test.html .

Still problem with codecs which gstreamer on N9 does not support, like WebM and OGG. Probably could be installed as extra plugins but I'm not sure.

Desktop Firefox Qt. what next?

Hello everybody.
Recently found post about Qt Firefox

http://www.computerworld.com.au/article/373568/mozilla_revives_qt_port_firefox_4/

Really nice that Qt Firefox has been noticed, and Big Thanks to John Ford for tinderbox Qt port tinderbox builds setup and making that happen.

Desktop Qt builds should really help us get more feedback about Firefox-Qt problems and help make it closer to Firefox-Gtk port quality.

So what is further plans for Firefox Qt:
1) Fix trivial and most annoying bugs which are visible on tinderbox-builds
2) Setup nightly builds and and have possibility track regressions (without recompiling).
3) Setup testing slaves, mochitests, reftests... and make them green.
4) Make Firefox-Qt builds visible on Try Server, and possibly on Official Test Server as soon as Qt port stable and good maintained.
