Cairo in Firefox

According to the Burning Edge, Cairo will be landing on Firefox trunk soon – probably next week.

What this will mean:

  • Small speedup in normal browsing
  • Better rendering
  • Some cool stuff in SVG and Canvas
  • Antialiasing, bilinear image scaling
  • Accelerated graphics (OpenGL, etc.)
  • Make it uber easy to render a web page to formats such as PDF or PNG
