Not entirely correct. This is the intent but there is a LOT of work.  A 
LOT.  Getting it all done in 6 months is a very tall order.  It is 
possible that it just won't be ready to go by the next GNOME cycle and 
GNOME will go with a Gecko based one instead as detailed toward the end 
of the initial announcement[1]
