* Team is busy working on moving from FF 3.0 beta 1 to beta 2 code base.

* Looking into why bookmark not working in FF3.0 based Midbrowser.

* Got some good performance numbers from QA on FF3.0 base Midbrowser.
The average page rendering is close to 50% faster with the FF3.0 beta1
based code. However the startup time appears to be slower.

* We have got permission from the owner of the grabanddrag addon to use
in Midbrowser to provide finger scrolling.

the merge is finished and available on the WORKING branch [1]. Once we
have fixed the icons we can go ahead and QA for other blockers and if
nothing seriously pops up make midbrowser 0.3 the default imo.

We should switch to use system xulrunner-1.9 everywhere in
mobile. Once the home screen (and midbrowser) use xulrunner-1.9, the
important libs will already be loaded when starting midbrowser for
the first time.

Isn't that code tri-licensed anyway?

That sounds exciting. Startup has been a challenge since the beginnig.
While this will increase the MID first-time startup time, I wonder what
the hit will be on subsequent fast-boot startup times.
