160743 - (nssclienttag36) Move the NSS_CLIENT_TAG to the NSS 3.6 (branch?) when it is reasonable

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(NSS :: Libraries, defect, P1)

Description

[Kai Engert (:KaiE:)]

As soon as the NSS team thinks the NSS 3.6 branch is stable enough for being
used in client applications, the NSS_CLIENT_TAG should get moved.

OK, it's time to do this.

Kai, could you provide Linux and Windows experimental
builds using the NSS_3_6_BETA1 tag for NSS?

Javi, could you provide a Mac experimental build
using the NSS_3_6_BETA1 tag for NSS?

I made John the QA contact for this bug.  Please cc
other CPD QA for the browser security features as
appropriate.

I'll provide Windows and Linux test builds later this evening.

Comment 3

[Wan-Teh Chang]

Linux, Mac, and Windows test builds using NSS 3.6 Beta1
have been provided to John Unruh and Charles Rosendahl
for testing.

The risk of this checkin is low.  However, it may be
tricky to keep the "depend build" Tinderboxes green
because the location of the NSS header files will change
from dist/public/security to dist/public/nss.  So I will
request a carpool for the checkin.

Locations of test builds (available only on Netscape intranet).

Linux: /u/kaie/mozilla-optimized20020924.tar.gz

Windows: /u/kaie/mozilla-optimized20020924.zip

Mac: from Mac OS X select the Go menu and enter
afp://javi.mcom.com/.  Mount the drive "Shared Drive"
and extract the file MozillaNSS3.6Beta1.sea onto
your hard drive.
