I am confused, I remember downloading and trying an early Servo release out a very long time (decade?) ago.

I've not been following the space, is this a different project with the same name?



If the other project was a web browser then it's the same project. It got abandoned ~5 years ago, but has since been picked up again.


Same, reborn


I hope they give it a new name with the rebirth. I know it means something to some people but there are a lot of different things with that name


I hope they don't, Servo is a technology

If someone wants to put marketing veneer on top of a new project that uses servo, great! But servo is servo: a rendering engine


Agree, 'servo' suggests serving whereas this is oriented to being a web client?


I think there's a Verso project which uses it. Named servo in reverse.
