Really? Bummer. I hope the community keep a steady pace at development and don't let it die. Having another engine competing with the "titans" of the current web would bring so much benefit (I think and hope so).

The "recent" event[0] with Chrome dev team scared me; they have so much power to change things "at will".

Servo is not and never will be a competitive browser engine.

Gecko is that engine competing with the titans.
