We need Firefox 4 to be hardware accelerated using OpenGL and Direct3D 9 for layers, and Direct2D for Cairo.

Proposed Plan

Est. Completion Date	Step
Aug 13	Phase 1: Focus first on getting D2D reftests passing. During this time, Vlad and Benoit will focus on WebGL, and coordinate d3d work, after that, Benoit can help out on the OpenGL work. We need to provide people with a way to tell us what hardware they are running if they experience issues, put that in about:support.
?	Phase 2: Enable D2D on m-c, even without the blocklist done, even if we don't get the test pilot survey done. This is just flipping a pref, but we need this time to gather feedback from our devs and beta community.
?	Phase 3: D3D9 - Fix Reftests. Make sure D3D9 works with D2D - Once we get here, we should be ready to enable on m-c hardware acceleration on windows, both compositing and accelerated content. Note: The D3D9 reftests should all be passing at least by Aug 25th so we can enable on m-c with enough time to be somewhat comfortable with shipping it in the Sept 1 feature complete beta, right?
?	Phase 4: Shift everyone over to OpenGL. Finish implementation. Fix Reftests. Make layers acceleration work first on the Mac.
?	Phase 5: Shift everyone over to Mobile: Android and Maemo. Bring in Blassy and Michael Wu.

Other Issues:

Bas should fly out as soon as we have reftest issues tracked in order to sprint.
Drop libjpeg-turbo?
Drop OpenGL on Linux? Can mgregan do this? Can distros help here?
Matt Woodrow? Karlt?
Are there other little features here and there that people are working on? If so, we should probably drop.
