The sugarized Firefox interface

Description

There is a port of Firefox 3 to the XO linked from the Activities page on our wiki. It has been partly sugarized by C. Scott Ananian. Work still to be done:

  • integrate with journal, so downloaded files "work right" and get launched in the appropriate activity.
  • use proper sugar activity start/stop mechanism so icons in view switcher look right, and URLs can be launched from the journal in firefox.
  • integrate bookmark mechanism with journal, so that bookmarks show up in journal.
  • fix persistence issues with rainbow, so that bookmarks, settings, and installed extensions are persistent.
