Thanks! Good to see a blog. I'm very excited about Servo; like I was saying, I just really hope it won't get killed off before it reaches the finish line and replaces Gecko.
Patterns are scary.

I don't think they'll kill Servo. They need to modernize Gecko, and there's so much potential in Servo to do so that it would be a waste throw the code out.
He's a troll.

scrollaway is not behaving like a troll. Mozilla have engaged in some very bizarre moves in recent years. Whilst I don't think Servo is in trouble, it's fairly clear the leadership of Mozilla has become erratic. Thankfully the development of Servo goes beyond just one company.

I still miss Ubiquity from Mozilla Labs. Those were the days!

Who, me?
No, scrollaway. Sorry for the confusion.
Steady progress as always! You can follow along with This Week in Servo at https://blog.servo.org/ :)
Recently we just added flexbox support and the Fetch API, just to name two of many.
