Firefox OS Source Leaked!!!
The complete, commented source code for Mozilla's new Firefox OS effort has been leaked!! In what can only be a massive oversight on Mozilla's part, the holy trinity of Firefox OS (codenamed Boot2Gecko), Gonk (the Linux kernel), Gecko (the renderer), and Gaia (the HTML5 / CSS / JavaScript) have been posted on GitHub via Mozilla's top secret B2G account, along with several other vital code components for Firefox OS. Be sure to go grab the source code as quickly as possible before Mozilla recognizes their mistake! Go, quickly!
This is an April Fools joke. Firefox OS has been open source from day one!

![6 Things You Didn’t Know About Firefox OS]()
Firefox OS is all over the tech news and for good reason: Mozilla's finally given web developers the platform that they need to create apps the way they've been creating them for years -- with CSS, HTML, and JavaScript. Firefox OS has been rapidly improving...
![Event Delegation with MooTools]()
Events play a huge role in JavaScript. I can't name one website I've created in the past two years that hasn't used JavaScript event handling on some level. Ask yourself: how often do I inject elements into the DOM and not add an...
![WebKit-Specific Style: -webkit-appearance]()
I was recently scoping out the horrid source code of the Google homepage when I noticed the "Google Search" and "I'm Feeling Lucky" buttons had a style definition I hadn't seen before: -webkit-appearance. The value assigned to the style was "push-button." They are buttons so that...
Happy April David!

That’s a Geek April Fool :D
A great April Fool :D
A Great April Fool Day to all :-)
OMG! Thanks for telling! I most hurry and grab it XD… wait I’m not a mobile factory nor a divolapar, just a FFOS fan :x
Too obvious for today. A press release from Mozilla announcing its release might have been more convincing…maybe…but not today. ;)
LOL Happy April Fool to you David xD
oops, nice joke :)
Very clever, i almost believed! :)
Lol well this is late, but I was Googling Firefox OS related-stuff and saw this headline. I clicked it only to begin making fun of whoever wrote this for stupidity, but clearly you knew what you were talking about the whole time :DD
I was looking for the source. Googled it and came here. Great informative post and thanks for the link :-)
Really ppl…Firefox OS, like all Mozilla products, is open source. lol. [not directed to the author, who obviously knew this]. Thanks for the link though.
As a Open Source fan i cant wait to grab it. Thanks for sharing!
