Mozilla’s Boot to Gecko project -- which was originally a plan to build a mobile operating system based on open Web standards like HTML5 -– has morphed into a mature product. As
TechCrunch reports, it is being prepared for a commercial launch within months. Mozilla has also confirmed that their HTML5-friendly mobile ecosystem now has the support of a handful of additional
carrier and hardware partners, according to TC. Oh, and say goodbye to the “Boot to Gecko” name, as the product has officially adopted the more market-friendly name, “Firefox
OS.”
