I was doing XUL Runner work, but I have no more active clients using it. From my perspective, the main things that are still needed for a "XUL Runner" is the stub, the ability to repackage nicely on Mac and some better tools for modifying the stub (icon, internal strings). The full xulrunner standalone package isn't really needed. Firefox works fine from an application perspective; I've even taken the old xulrunner stub, removed the Firefox executable and been able to use a standard Firefox install as XUL Runner. So as long as that continues to work, there's no need to the full xulrunner. (And I think it will because that's how the web app runtime works.) As far as documentation goes, honestly the XULRunner documentation hasn't been in a good position for many years. Anyone who does this stuff does it by trial and error anyway. That being said, I'll help out with XUL Runner, but I don't have the bandwidth to own it.
