WebKit in Firefox?


He is referring to <https://github.com/mozilla/firefox-ios>.

But you will note that none of those things are "in" Firefox. H.264 support in the <video> tag is implemented via platform-specific APIs (which, for example still don't work on OS X). DRM requires a CDM binary blob, which is again platform specific. You do not have the open-source freedom to port these features to some other platform that does not support them.


For use in iOS, I imagine.
