Re: [cors] TAG request concerning CORS & Next Step(s)

First of all, I know of only one outstanding security issue, which is
around redirects. If there are others, it would be great to get
detailed feedback, we're not hard to reach :)

I am very interested. And I know others are mozilla are too.

Firefox 3.5 will be out in a matter of days (RC available already) and
it supports the majority of CORS (everything but redirects of
preflighted requests).

Firefox 3.5 also uses CORS as security model for @font-face in order
to support cross-site loading of fonts.

As Anne pointed out, others have also deployed partial support. In
fact, relatively speaking, CORS has seen an extraordinary amount of
browser deployment already.
