Strict liability
I think strict liability and absolute liability need to be moved off of regulatory offence. The former indicates the presence of a regulatory agency, and generally is not something i have ever heard in US law. Strict liability, on the other hand, is something used a lot, and absolute liability appears to be the same thing. Since you are Canadian, this might just be a jurisdictional difference. Do you have any interest in the articles? Manney 13:31, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

CCRF
Is this page on your watchlist? It'll be on the main page on August 2, so expect some vandalism and bad edits- I hope you can help out with that. How's your summer going? CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 07:26, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
 * How do you think that passage can be stated better? Please fix it. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 19:43, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Thanks though. However, I must say I've been noticing that with this article those who have a problem with it isn't so much because of whether it's unreferenced but because the references offend their own little version of events.  They like to think of Quebec being betrayed by fascists, the United States towering over a Canada in the Dark Ages, and they don't like the idea that we should neglect the fact that some extremist right wing theocratic pro-life property rights enthusiasts support the Charter.  *Sigh* CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 21:56, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Provincial Judges
I hope you don't mind this wikification on one of your subpages since I just wrote the article. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 01:54, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

SCC cases
Do you have any opinion on whether some Supreme Court cases should be considered notable or non notable? Are they all notable? I'd personally say they're mostly all notable. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 01:59, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

Provincial Judges Reference
Since you started this article, I was wondering if you have anything to say about its expansion. Note that while there are some criticisms, these were added throughout the article in an attempt to make it understandable, and hopefully, interesting. Is there anything else that should be added? Thanks, CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 20:02, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

List of notable Canadian trial court cases
Hey PUYS, I just created an article on R. v. Jim; it was not a trial case, yet not heard in the British Columbia Court of Appeal; it was an appeal to the British Columbia Supreme Court. How should this be categorized? CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 06:05, 26 August 2006 (UTC)
 * What about provincial court cases? CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 02:05, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Yeah, there would be few, unless you count things that were later appealed (the Remuneration Reference pointed to Big M as an important provincial court case, even though it was later appealed to no less than the Supreme Court). Why not "inferior and superior" leaving out the description "federal"?  All superior courts are federal anyway. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 02:13, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
 * Or we can be a little less scientific and say "lower court cases". After all, the law schools aren't grading us :P CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 02:25, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Canadian Judicial Committee of the Privy Council Cases
You should write some articles regarding this,including compiling some lists such as List of Dominion of Canada Privy Council Cases,List of Nova Scotian Privy Council Cases,etc. When a case had been to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council,& one of the parties represented the Dominion,& the other party represented a province,then this case's article should be listed in both the Dominion's list,& the list of the relevant province. - (202.180.98.82 15:16, 20 September 2006 (UTC))

Cdn govt images
Just a point of clarification: those arguing for deletion are not necessarily basing their argument on U.S. fair use law, they are arguing that even if these images DO qualify as fair use, they should be deleted anyway. The concept of "replaceability" has no basis in U.S. fair use law, and is, frankly, a little dubious. - Mcasey666 19:24, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

Image:Louis-Philippe de Grandpre.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Louis-Philippe de Grandpre.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

 * 1) Go to the image description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. --Abu Badali 19:11, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

AfD Nomination: List of publications in law
I've nominated the article List of publications in law for deletion under the Articles for deletion process. We appreciate your contributions, but in this particular case I do not feel that List of publications in law satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion. I have explained why in the nomination space (see What Wikipedia is not and Deletion policy). Your opinions on the matter are welcome; please participate in the discussion by adding your comments at Articles for deletion/List of publications in law. Don't forget to add four tildes ( ~ ) at the end of each of your comments to sign them. You are free to edit the content of List of publications in law during the discussion, but please do not remove the "Articles for Deletion" template (the box at the top). Doing so will not end the discussion. WJBscribe 03:22, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

Oakes test and Bakan
Its well known at UBC, the school that I go to, that Bakan wrote the Oakes test, he has told the story in class and other professors have mentioned that he did.

How do you want it verified?

Exceptional? Keep your socks on, I asked because this is not the kind of thing that gets well documented, officially Dickson wrote it so short of him explicitly saying Bakan is the author this isn't the kind of thing that lends itself to documentation from an independently forthcoming source.

That you think he is making it up is interesting. [personal attack removed]

PullUpYourSocks- I just want to make sure that I understand the license granted, as the page for this map refers to you as the author (and releasing it into the public domain), but also says "This file is a work by Javitomad." Would you let me know who created the map and color coding? I am interested in using it in a powerpoint presentation, and want to make we have the proper permissions. Please let me know.

legal systems map
Hello PullUpYourSocks, I posted the following on the Talk:Legal systems of the world page, about taking out the customary law classifications - then I noticed that excellent coloured map, which I think is yours. I don't know how to change these things, but if you'd agree, I wanted to ask for your help. Here's what I posted: Wikidea 23:37, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

 * I'd like to suggest that the sections about 'customary law' be removed. The reason is that I just don't think it's an actual legal system in its own right. Custom is certainly a source of law, and an important one, but it doesn't constitute a legal system. The only two examples given are Andorra and Mongolia. This is a link to law in Mongolia, which I googled in about 2 seconds, showing a distinct lack of 'custom' - it's a civil code based jurisdiction. As for Andorra, it's a European country, and I bet it's got a civil law system much like the places around it. If you wanted you could call the common law customary law under the definition given on the customary law page, and you could call England a mixed system with custom and common law: think of all the Parliamentary procedures, or the custom that the monarch doesn't sack the elected government (since 1707 I think). I'm sure that you can easily remove it from the page, and it'd make the page far simpler, neater and more accurate. Would it be okay for me to go ahead on this? Wikidea 04:10, 14 January 2007 (UTC)

A and Others v. Secretary of State for the Home Department
Since you created this article, it's been expanded into a long-winded POV essay by another contributor, and since tagged for cleanup. I think the present version is unsalvageable, so I'm going to revert back to your original version and am hoping to expand it with additional sources. Please help if you can - you clearly know more about this field than I do. Walton monarchist89 11:04, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

Even though you are a sensible contributor to wikipedia, I have to inform you; that using the word sock, in your username may bring to the attention of admins that you are a sockpuppet of a blocked, or banned user. Just to notify you. Retiono Virginian 17:45, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

Red links
Hm, not sure if I agree with their removal. Lists can have red links as a sort of a to-do list; plus if those articles are written the editor would have to re-add them, or they may not know where to add them and the article may be orphaned. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 23:22, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

Help with RFC
Hello there, sorry for the form-letter post.... I am writing you because your interest in the past around the collection of articles around HRM and Halifax.

I have recently lodged a Request for Comments on the Talk:Halifax, Nova Scotia page. I and several other editors have had a running dispute with user Lonewolf BC. The RFC is This is a dispute about whether it is accurate to continue to refer to the area of or approximately coinciding with the boundaries of the City of Halifax, which became a part of the rural/urban Halifax Regional Municipality in 1996,  as a city.

Basically, as I say on the RFC, we all agree that this is no longer a City, but to use former City's boundaries when describing the current urban area as a "city" (note the lower case) is at best arbitrary and at worst a fabrication. The city is now a continuous area that wraps the harbour, from Portuguese Cove (outside of the city of Halifax to the west and south) to Cole Harbour (outside of the former City of Dartmouth to the east). People now refer to the entire urban area of Halifax Regional Municipality as 'the city' and 'Halifax'.

Anyway, the bottom line is at least five people have tried to change the wording of the intro since January, and every time this one user changes it back. I have tried to come up with compromise wording, and he won't dialog. Right now wikipedia says HRM and Halifax are the capital of Nova Scotia. This article is now factually incorrect, in my opinion, and I need your help, please chime in. WayeMason 23:14, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:Yves_Pratte.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Yves_Pratte.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Abu badali (talk) 21:09, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Article on Intervener
Dear PullUpYourSocks:

I would like to improve the article you started entitled intervener. I would like to include some information on U.S. legal practice. I know that the article as it stands now is based mostly on Canadian practice, (which is obviously your field of expertise), but I think there are a few errors in this article as it stands now. First of all, intervention in a civil case in the United States is governed by a separate rule in the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, Rule 24. Secondly, American lawyers do not consider intervention the same thing as an amicus curiae brief; in fact, the two concepts are altogether different. Intervention in U.S. practice is when a new party comes into the case to protect her interests or because she has a common question of law or fact with the ongoing litigation. Amici curiae are considered "advisory" briefs and are governed by a totally different submission procedure.

This article could really use an overhaul or at least some clarification, but I did not want to begin doing so without your advice and input. Personally, I think the article should be completely rewritten and most of the current content be moved to the amicus curiae article, but I wanted to hear your opinion on the matter first. Please respond on my talk page when you have time.

Thanking you in advance, --Eastlaw 03:43, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

English case names
I'm sure you are aware of this by now, but English, Australian, New Zealand (not sure about Canada) etc. cases do not have a full stop after the v in their name. --Matthew Proctor 07:01, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

Revision history of Reasons of the Supreme Court of Canada by Justice LeBel
Quite by accident I happened upon the RHoRotSCoCbJL site that you built. I am not a legal scholar, and will probably never need the information on that page... but that has got to be one of the most beautifully designed pages I have ever seen.

In my readings, I recently stumbled on some references to the Baker Lake case about Inuit title. I can't seem to find anything about it on wikipedia?

Replaceable fair use Image:John C. Major.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:John C. Major.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that the media is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media could reasonably be found or created that provides substantially the same information. If you believe this media is not replaceable, please:

 * 1) Go to the media description page and edit it to add, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
 * 2) On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per our non-free content policy.

Speedy deletion nomination of Butler Machine Tool Co Ltd v Ex-Cell-O Corp Ltd
A tag has been placed on Butler Machine Tool Co Ltd v Ex-Cell-O Corp Ltd requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Donating copyrighted materials.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion, guidelines for use at WP:MINOR). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and all users will still be able to manually mark their edits as being minor in the usual way.

For well-established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 20:39, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Power station Berlin-Wilmersdorf

The power station Berlin-Wilmersdorf was a power plant in Berlin-Schmargendorf, which went into service in 1977, and has been shut down in 2021.

Construction of the facility, which belongs to the BEWAG, started in 1973.

At the time of construction, the three power engines are MS9001B gas turbines, manufactured in Belfort (France) by a cooperation between Alsthom and General Electric.

It has three blocks with a power of 110 megawatts, each equipped with a 102 m chimney. This very striking facility received an architectural prize in the 1980s. It is not located near a river and therefore must take its cooling water from underground. There was an explosion on January 2, 1992, in one of the blocks. It is run by Vattenfall Europe, a subdivision of Vattenfall.

Rohrau, Austria

Rohrau (Marktgemeinde Rohrau) is a village in the state of Lower Austria. The name comes from two German words: Rohr (reed) and Au (riparian forest). South of the village is a riparian forest and a swamp covered with reed.

Rohrau is located in the "industrial quarter" (Industrieviertel) of Lower Austria. Its area is 20.50 km2, of which 8.38% is forested. There is a kindergarten and a primary school (Volksschule). It is the birthplace of the composer Joseph Haydn who was born there on 31 March 1732.

Subdivisions
Rohrau is subdivided into the following Katastralgemeinden:
 * Rohrau
 * Gerhaus
 * Hollern
 * Pachfurth

History
The area in pre-Roman times belonged to the Celtic kingdom of Noricum. In Roman Times, the area was part of the Roman province of Pannonia Superior; Rohrau is near to Carnuntum, a former Roman army camp close to the village of Petronell-Carnuntum. Rohrau grew along an old road next to the river Leitha connecting Carnuntum to the bridge crossing the river at Bruck an der Leitha, the current district capital.

In the Middle Ages, a castle was built, surrounded by a moat; later it was converted to a chateau. Its facade as seen today is in the "Josephinian Style", a late and very rare Baroque style that only was used during the reign of Emperor Joseph II in the late 18th century. The chateau (Schloss Rohrau) has been owned by the Counts of Harrach and their descendants since 1524, and it contains the largest private collection of Dutch oil paintings in Austria.

In the 16th century, Rohrau was given the right to hold a market, thus becoming a Market town.

In the early 18th century, the town was plagued by attacks from the Kuruczes, described by Geiringer as "the peasant army of the anti-Habsburg Hungarian party". In 1704, they plundered the town and burned homes, returning to do the same in 1706; a further attack took place in 1707. A resident who lost his house to the flames in both 1704 and 1706 was Lorenz Koller (born 1675), who was the Marktrichter (roughly, mayor) of the town and the maternal grandfather of Joseph Haydn (see below).

Rohrau as former border town
Rohrau stands in close proximity to the neighbouring state of Burgenland, which was part of Hungary until 1921. Rohrau once had a border checkpoint at the bridge crossing the river to what was then the Hungarian part of the Austrian Empire. This checkpoint, which now is a farmhouse, was only an internal border crossing, and the local noble family Harrach, in fact, owned land on both sides.

Rohrau and Haydn
The composer Joseph Haydn was born in Rohrau in 1732. His father Mathias was a master wheelwright who served as Marktrichter of the village; something akin to mayor. His mother had previously worked as a cook in the Harrach household. Haydn lived in Rohrau only until about 1738, when he was sent away to attend a boarding school in nearby Hainburg.

The composer's birth home, which is also the birth home of his brother Michael Haydn, is today a museum; it only partially reflects its original form since it has been repeatedly restored following fires and floods. It has also been expanded to serve its purpose as a museum.

A monument to Haydn was erected by Count Karl Leonhard Harrach in 1793, during the composer's own lifetime; it is thus the oldest of all Haydn monuments. It was originally placed in the park of Harrach chateau, on an artificial island (the "Haydn-Insel") in the Leitha River, created for the purpose. The monument was later transferred to the center of the village, where it stands today. When Haydn returned from London in 1795, he visited the monument during an emotional return to his home town.

Historical population of Rohrau

 * 1971: 1,341
 * 1981: 1,258
 * 1991: 1,224
 * 2001: 1,455
 * 2011: 1,544
 * 2014: 1,569

Economy
As of 2011, there were 47 companies related to agricultural and forestry, and 89 non-agricultural jobs. 791 persons were employed at their place of residence. 43 people were unemployed.

Local agricultural products: sugar beets, wheat, maize/corn, potatoes, sheep, wine.

Local politics
The village mayor (Bürgermeister), is Herbert Speckl, Deputy Mayor is Albert Mayer. The "village secretary" (Gemeindesekratär) is Josef Rössler. In 2015 election the seats at the village council, 19 in total, were distributed between the People's Party - ÖVP (14) and the Social Democratic Party - SPÖ (5). Traditionally the People's Party has a stronghold in Lower Austria, due to the support they get from farmers and white-collar employees.

Church
Rohrau is part of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Vienna. The Catholic priest at the church of St. Vitus is Dr. Norbert Mendecki.

I also edited various things before registering; most (I think) of them can be found at Special:Contributions/24.107.62.204. I'm fairly certain that I added to some articles for elements in the 120s (such as unbiunium?) around that time, but that the article was deleted before being re-created in 2004 (I'm assuming that the logs don't go back that far), so I have no way of verifying this.

Personal Editing Philosophies (not comprehensive)
Some guidelines (mostly consistent) that I have been using are:
 * Unless I add new content equivalent to about a sentence, I try to mark edits as "minor."

I am trying to do things in such a way that will make Wikipedia more respected. On the surface, this has mainly been things like adding and discussing sources. Obviously, I cannot make Wikipedia more respected, but I am trying to help. I like the "mission statement" for WikiProject Fact and Reference Check.

For now, this is about as controversial as I get: My personal equivalent of "RC Patrol" might be called "deletion patrol." It is unfortunate that so many things almost get deleted (or do get deleted) because speedy deletion templates were misapplied, not enough research into notability was done, etc.

Background
Academically, my "main" interests are physics and mathematics (formally), and genealogy/history, linguistics/languages (informally). My "other" interests are everything else.

If you know your ancestry back to the Middle Ages in Europe, then we are almost certainly related. Feel free to let me know!

This sentence is a placeholder for any further autobiographical details that may be added.

Miscellaneous
$$U(-n, a, x) = \sum_{i=1}^n (-1)^i {n \choose i-1} \frac{(a+n)!}{(a+n-1)!} x^{i-1}, n\in\mathbb{Z}^+$$

$$2x^n - \sum_{i=0}^n x^i$$

$$\vec{\vec{\vec T}}_{ijk} = T_{ijk}\hat x_i\otimes\hat x_j\otimes\hat x_k$$

Invitation to discuss on Wikipedia:Naming conventions (Cyrillic)
As there is already an only proposed Wikipedia guideline on naming conventions (Cyrillic). The proposal is still in development, under discussion and needs of gathering consensus for adoption. Since I am well experienced on this subject, I would like to criticize the official transliteration of Bulgarian as it gives too many errors, which also causes some losses of sounds “ǎ (a hacek”), decentralise itself from other slavic languages (“c” and “š”  voices), which is also conflicting in itself (see street signs  and ). By this revision, it is away from being accurate and not able to satisfy the needs of an encyclopedia which claims to be scientifical. These are the reasons I invite you to read Scientific transliteration of Cyrillic and involve the discussion in order to contribute a possible concensus. Wish to see you here thanks Manaviko (talk) 13:18, 5 April 2016 (UTC)

Minimo

Minimo (from "Mini Mozilla") was a project to create a version of the Mozilla web browser for small devices like personal digital assistants and mobile phones.

The project aimed to make it easier for developers to embed parts of Mozilla into systems with limited system resources (for example, machines with low amounts of RAM).

Background
The Minimo Project was created to test the feasibility of porting a full-function desktop browser engine to advanced mobile devices.

To minimize the use of system resources Minimo initially did not include some of Mozilla's functionality, such as support for SVG, although continuing experiments sought to include all the features of the Mozilla codebase. In addition, the browser used small screen rendering technology to reformat Web pages for pocket-sized displays and allowed a platform for UI experiments on mobile devices. The user interface was designed to take up minimal screen space, with a single 8px high toolbar and a hidden-by-default address bar. Other user interface functionality, such as bookmarks, history, and search, was migrated into a special homepage called the Homebase. Because Minimo is based on the Gecko infrastructure, developers can decide to build specific versions and evaluate other features such as the canvas, SVG support, and more.

Chris Hofmann created the Minimo project shortly after leaving Netscape Communications in 2003, under funding from Nokia's Maemo team. He single-handedly saved the project from being canceled many times. Currently Chris works for the Mozilla Corporation. Chris was also responsible for some of the Minimo key features such as the Homebase bar, a format for displaying bookmarks more amenable to mobile devices.

Early Minimo development centered on ARM devices (such as Hewlett-Packard's iPAQ) with around 64MB of RAM, running Familiar Linux and the GPE Palmtop Environment (where it was the default browser). Minimo 0.1 was released for this platform in 2004.

The lead Minimo developer, Doug Turner, headed this and additional Mozilla mobile projects such as the Mozilla labs project named Joey. The Mozilla Foundation hired Turner in December 2004 to work full-time on Mobile projects. Minimo was funded by Nokia and others. Nokia's involvement became public in mid-2004. Chris and Doug teamed up with web developer Marcio Galli as he focused in user interface aspects and mostly creating built in applications for Minimo using HTML instead of XUL — these were refereed in the source code as extensions but served as concept for web-based mobile apps featuring Flickr, Google Maps, and more. A Windows CE version of Minimo was created for Pocket PC 2003 software development kit. The first public build of Minimo for Windows CE was made available in February 2005.

In June 2006, the 0.16 release of minimo included tabs, a "homebase bar" for fast navigation to frequently used web sites, and featured support for many advanced web development capabilities that made the mobile browser easier to use.

On December 17, 2006, Turner, in his blog, acknowledged the slow pace of development, and revealed that Mozilla developers were exploring alternatives for Gecko-based web browsing on mobile handsets. Turner issued an invitation for others to "step up" as his own development priorities shift.

Version 0.2 came out in March 2007 and represented a product targeted for mobile developers. Minimo 0.2 included and upgraded interface, and support for Windows Mobile 5.

On November 27, 2007, project head Doug Turner announced that the project was no longer supported.

By 2008 Doug Turner had begun on yet another mobile web browser, this time known as Firefox Mobile or Fennec.

Criticism
Probably because it was in the early stages of development, the Windows Mobile version of Minimo performed significantly slower than expected.

The quality of rendered pages is congruent with the well-respected layout engine it implemented (Gecko), but the program had very high memory and hardware requirements compared to what was typically available on most handheld platforms (e.g. 64 megabytes of RAM, 206–624 MHz ARM-compatible CPU).

Version 0.2 was recommended for developers targeting mobile devices or interested in AJAX- and Web Services-driven Web application for the mobile space. Minimo was compatible with many Web 2.0 applications, such as Gmail.
