Steps to reproduce:

js packaged in many Linux distributions as mozjs is used in may other project.

IMO it would be good to move js/ content to separate project to maintain it independently allowing easier build firefox and other projects which are using js.

Actual results:

n/a

Expected results:

n/a

Component: Untriaged → JavaScript Engine
Product: Firefox → Core

This is certainly something we've waffled on. It will not happen in the short term, and I will close this bug as WONTFIX, not because it isn't a good idea, but because this isn't really going to be something we'd track in our bug tracker. There'd be a whole list of infrastructural and cultural things to be addressed before this would even be feasible, and discussion about this will have to happen over a long period of time with many stakeholders.
