Interop and Hard Problems

Let’s talk about priorities, technical debt and hard problems in the Web Platform…
In many ways, browser engine projects are not that different from most other software projects. The “stewards” still have teams with managers and specializations and budgets and people out on leave, and so on. They have to prioritize and plan. And just like every other project I’ve ever seen, they face the same kinds of pressures and problems: There are never enough resources for everything, there are always new asks, and they always accumulate tech debt, and sometimes there are hard problems.
