Mozilla develops new mobile OS, web app store

“Mozilla discussed its mobile operating system and app store during last week’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. At the same time, Telefonica, one of the world’s largest telecommunications companies, chipset giant Qualcomm, and Deutsche Telekom announced they were cooperating in the effort. This is all part of Mozilla’s ‘Boot to Gecko’ project, designed to develop an open-source mobile operating system based on Web standards.”
