This is the sixteenth edition of the XUL/XBL Replacement Newsletter. Since the last edition, we’ve removed the XULDocument implementation and have been helped with XBL removal by two big projects completed by other teams. We're getting close to finishing the burndown of XBL bindings and are doing some prep work to allow building Firefox without the XBL implementation once that happens.

This is the fifteenth edition of the XUL/XBL Replacement Newsletter. Since the last edition we've been working to incorporate more web standard code into the browser frontend, and converted some particularly complex XBL bindings to Custom Elements.
