mozilla uses a number of externally developed libraries for its core functionality. Off the top of my head I list libjpeg, libpng, libmng, zlib, and expat. Bug 1943 has been filed to add the credit for libjpeg which is required by the license, but it would be nice to acknowledge the work of other groups whose libraries we depend on. Who decides what things are listed on the "about:" page?
We need license READMEs in the tree too. I'm way tardy in supplying some; I'll confer with mitchell and report back here. /be
Since timeless seems to be doing the IJG portion (bug 1943), assign to him.
