Responses in this category

  • Too many variations of Firefox OS; different devices, Gonk types (proprietary drivers), Gaia branches, Gecko versions, desktopb2g/Devices, nightly builds too many combinations for our small team and too many barriers to engage community. 27 votes
  • FirefoxOS development hurts. There is a massive barrier to entry, the Right Way seems to change every few months (rendering most documentation broken), and even successful builds take a very long time. 22 votes
  • The expectation that I fix bugs on hardware I don't have. 17 votes
  • Having to deal with completely nonsensical B2G deadlines from partners. 1 vote.
