Windows Mobile

Building from trunk is blocked by NSPR, NSS and freetype font backend patches getting review. The font patch has been getting regular review and update, its being held up somewhat now because of conflicts with @font-face work. NSS and NSPR patches have stalled out.

Performance is improving steadily, once we can build from the trunk the focus will be on getting performance patches landed.

Plugins

Composited plugins don't work in fennec because the plugin window is clipped away. I don't know why it's clipped yet. See https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=442109.
