Submission + - Mozilla Desktop Environment
Andreas writes: "A discussion at mozilla.dev.planning list has given the birth to the idea of a Mozilla Desktop Environment. This sure sounds like a possibility for Mozilla as it already has many of the applications needed and the company is more than well familiar with XUL, which is a more than potent language to build a Desktop Environment upon. By building a desktop environment Mozilla doesn't have to worry about drivers (and such) and can choose from a variety of kernels, and still be in the center of attention. Mozilla has to expand some of the applications for this to work though, like adding local file management with Firefox."
