I'm leaning on both Mermaid JS and PlantUML as my daily drivers for diagrams.

> Salesforce is basically a pseudo ERP at this point.
Not quite there just yet.
Salesforce has commerce, OMS, CPQ, reporting (Tableau). Just missing the WMS (warehouse management system) and I think we should be there…

> I didn't even know it has an ecommerce function
It has at least two (2) ecommerce functions (more if you count B2B Classic / CloudCraze)
1. Salesforce Commerce Cloud B2C - 2016 Demandware acquisition, somewhere in the spectrum of PaaS to SaaS, separate offering compared to the rest of the Salesforce platform. Customizations are done in ISML (JSP/JSTL/JSF-like) and an ECMAScript-like language in modern implementations (not going to cover SiteGenesis, Pipelines, and SiteGenesis Controllers for you old folks here). APIs are provided by the legacy OCAPI layer, and SCAPI layer, which has a thin Mulesoft API layer on top
2. Salesforce Commerce Cloud B2B/D2C - Salesforce-native platform (e.g. native Salesforce objects). Customizations done via Lightning (front-end) and Apex (Java-like language). More-or-less fully integrated into the Salesforce platform. More or less fully SaaS.
Demandware (and subsequently, SFCC) was one of the first ecommerce platforms to pioneer licensing a commerce platform based on revenue sharing (given the SaaS-like model), as opposed to legacy self-hosted platforms (ATG, Hybris, IBM WebSphere) which initially focused on licensing per seats or CPU.

Unpopular opinion: Tab management in browsers originally addressed the shortcomings of OS window management (see Windows XP and IE6, and the original Google Chrome tiling capability replicated into Windows 10/11 OS window management.

Last time I heard about Vala was the Yorba Foundation's (RIP) work with Geary and Shotwell, many many years ago.

A variant of this was tried over a decade ago, but never made it live - jQuery Templates. Not quite the same…

The Chromium PDF viewer was built from the Foxit PDF SDK.
Was Chromium Edge using that PDF viewer previously? Is this just moving to a new PDF viewer based on Acrobat SDKs?

The challenges I’ve had switching out Docker Engine, CLI, and Compose with Podman has been the absence of a vetted Docker Compose replacement.
What I’ve done so far in replacing Docker Desktop has been to use just the CLI, Engine, and Compose on WSL2.

The timing of this is impeccable. The Dreamforce (Salesforce's annual developer and user conference) keynote is tomorrow (December 2nd 2020).

If you want to drink from the firehose, the Planets are a good option

Thanks for putting the list together! There are a few that you may want to include:
1. Mozilla Labs (first iteration)
2. Mozilla Ubiquity (which we are seeing the concept re-emerge in Google Chrome)
3. Mozilla Prism
4. Mozilla Bespin (which sorta-lives-on)
5. XULRunner
6. Mozilla Test Pilot (1st and 2nd iterations)
I'm likely missing a few more. But a lot of these were experiments, and not concrete product offerings, so take with a grain of salt.
