The XULRunner was stopped to be supported in 2015. It can still run now but without security patches, support of the new OS versions etc. Mozilla is constantly decreasing capabilities of Firefox hacking. It is pity because there is no comparable alternative. Esteban is slowly working on GTK binding named Mars so you can ask on the current state of it.

Hi Pavel,
I am in prospective mode exploring alternative for desktop application vs SAAS application (in the later, the cost to maintain may be too high for only one technical guy, me).
As I saw in the Phobos demo the Print feature, I just did a quick hack to test print over a html document.
So xulrunner is abandonware? The new way to build UI in Firefox is totally different I guess so then?.
Beside Phobos, there is no reliable and feature complete alternative to build desktop application, is it that?
Thanks
Hilaire

Hi Hilaire,
I will look at it. Are you interested to have Phobos for Pharo 6? The main problem of Phobos is the stopped support of XULRunner by Mozilla without substitute so it's not good idea to use it for long-term projects.
