Details

We will give warren the priviledge. I know he likes doing massive changes like this... Brendan is comfortable using moz*
Why do all dll names have to change? And since when do I get to do the all the dirty work?
Priority: P3 → P1
Target Milestone: M3
Target Milestone: M3
this is not a M3 bug. This naming foolery makes no sense to me.
Target Milestone: M4
I don think this is M3 either. I am moving it to M4. Brendan already knows that this aint happening for M3. Warren let me know if you differ.
Status: NEW → ASSIGNED
I've posted before, and I thought I was clear: I'm not into mindless renaming, I don't like "moz" as shorthand for "mozilla", I don't find "moz" an improvement over "ns", and I think we should have a better (hierarchical) theory of poor man's namespaces before any renaming is done. /be
Sorry, my previous writings on this prefix issue were about source code conventions. For DLL names, I'm less averse to moz* -- but why not spell it out and avoid ambiguity? It wasn't rap*, it was raptor*, so make it mozilla* /be
Target Milestone: M4 → M6
not an m4 thing at this point. we should do this early in some future milestone cycle.
QA Contact: 3853 → 4395
Updated QA Contact for a check on Install when this is implemented.
Target Milestone: M6 → M8
-> m8. should this get reassigned?
Moving all Apprunner bugs past and present to Other component temporarily whilst don and I set correct component. Apprunner component will be deleted/retired shortly.
Target Milestone: M8 → M9
Low priority. M9
Target Milestone: M9 → M11
lets move this to m11. low to no benefit in comparison with the other necko tasks on warren's plate. maybe we could find another owner for it too...
Target Milestone: M11 → M20
I think somebody already did this. If not, let me know because I'm going to close this bug.
All the **windows** .DLL's were renamed due to the 8.3 problem. If this bug is refering to legal "raptor" trademark issues note that I didn't look at or change the Mac or Unix builds so they may still have "raptor" names.
