2030386 - Port bug 1946446: Update about:rights

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Thunderbird :: Upstream Synchronization, task)

Description

[Martin Giger [:freaktechnik]]

The upstream patch removed aboutRights.js and aboutRights.css (along with probably an illustration). This means our about:rights is now slightly less functional. We should repair the missing files either by adding them back in our codebase or replacing them with bespoke new code tailored to Thunderbird. Of course this becomes obsolete if we were to remove the built-in about:rights.

I think we should follow along and open a page on our website like Firefox did.
That'll make it easier to update and we can remove a big chunk of strings from the application.
I'll ping the web team to get that page done.
Toby, I think we will need to prioritize this before ESR

We moved that page to our website so we can update it if needed, and point to it like Firefox is doing.
Are you or someone else in the front-end team being able to tackle this port?

I'll be taking a look at tackling this after I get my local dev environment set up.
