Status updates

- Wifi connects to a hardcoded wifi network and DNS comes up.
- Still some open questions about what files are needed/not needed.
- Next: Genericise the code that connects to the network and send out events so that we can write a UI to select one (also, as always: cleanup!).

- finished implementing new Task Manager; separated it out from the App Manager
- added "press and hold" Home button gesture for pulling up the Task Manager
- going to wire up the Settings UI to the mozSettings interface over the next day or so
- considering abstracting out the animation/drawing logic used for the Task Manager to improve the "app launch" and "app close" animations instead of them relying on scaling the "live" IFRAME; the Task Manager uses -moz-element to draw the app IFRAME's contents to the background-image of another element and the animations performed with those elements seem to have a much better performance/frame rate
- created the beginnings of the "Market" app several weeks ago but haven't integrated the code in yet; would like to do this over the next week as well
- timdream
- Some International Layouts added. Keyboard available in English, German, French, Hebrew, Russian, Serbian, Dvorak, Chinese ZhuYing
- Chinese ZhuYing IME landed, problem with IME db license though. Move on to other stuff about keyboard (accent alphabets, highlight, ...)

- Study the code that how android handles the sensors.
- The code is in SensorManager and users who are interested in sensor event should register through it. When sensor changes, it callback through onSensorChaneged.
