[John Unruh]

Cna this be marked fixed, now that all the depends on bugs are fixed?

Comment 2

[Kai Engert [:KaiE:]]

What we have to do is produce a simple patch that adds the appropriate comments
that will mark the interfaces as frozen.

We should do this for 1.3 final.

Comment 3

[Kai Engert [:KaiE:]]

Luckily we have not yet frozen the interfaces.

I would like to make a reasonable change to nsIX509Cert.

The change will not create additional work for embeddors, since nsIX509Cert is
used by embeddors, but not implemented by them.

Since a cert can store multiple email addresses, we are adding a way to obtain
the list of all email addresses contained in the cert.

Bug 50823 implements the change.

[Juan José Mata]

Nominating topembed.

Comment 5

[saari (gone)]

removing topembed nomination as this is a meta bug. Please nominate the
individual bugs (although they all look to be fixed)

Comment 6

[Kai Engert [:KaiE:]]

Adding back nomination. It's not a meta bug, we need to produce a patch that
marks the interfaces as frozen, as required by the embedding docs.

Comment 7

[Michael Buckland]

Discussed in bug triage.  Does the milestone relflect reality and when do we
expect this to happen?

Comment 8

[Kai Engert [:KaiE:]]

I will produce the patch today.

Patch v1


This is to finalize the freeze process we started a while ago. No modifications
to the interfaces happened since we talked about it (with the exception of the
small addition in bug 50823, as previously announced).

Can you please review?
