<jedp> getting started https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Firefox_OS/Preparing_for_your_first_B2G_build
<jedp> slightly out of date, but basically the right steps: https://gist.github.com/jedp/3778932
<jedp> where it says mozilla-inbound, use mozilla-central instead
<jedp> a file called .mozconfig
<jedp> a b2g desktop mozconfig http://www.pastebin.mozilla.org/2752657
<jedp> instead of console.log … used dump("some message\n")
<jedp> to build
<jedp> ./mach build
<jedp> no more make -f client.mk
<jedp> don't do that

ETags: a pretty sweet feature of HTTP 1.1

HTTP caching review

HTTP provides two ways for servers to control client-side caching of page components:

• freshness may be based on a date or a token whose meaning is app-specific
• whether or not the client needs to confirm the cached version is up-to-date with the server

This breaks down as follows:

• Cache locally and don't check before using.
