229234 - Update Mozilla 1.7 Bookmarks

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 237340

(SeaMonkey :: Bookmarks & History, defect)

Description

[Daniel Wang]

not usre if 1.5 bookmarks ever makes it to 1.6 branch. Anyway, these URLs need
to be updated: Support & Release Notes

Set to blocker since we should have this in 1.6 release

Comment 1

[Boris 'pi' Piwinger]

1.6 is already released, so I assume this bug is INVALID.

gerv, it looks like change in bug 218326 is never ported to Mozilla 1.6 final.
Can we keep a separate bookmark.html and have the installer script or whatever
choose the right file?

Comment 3

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

Grr. That's annoying.

We need to check the bookmark changes into the trunk. And perhaps the 1.6 branch
too, if we are going to do another release.

Just to summarise: the work of this bug is getting the user-oriented bookmarks
file from 1.5 and checking it into the 1.7 trunk (primarily) and the 1.6 branch
(secondarily.) That is what the blocker nomination relates to.

Daniel: why is your file based on the 1.4 bookmarks and not the new,
user-friendly 1.5 bookmarks checked in under bug 218326?

Comment 6

[Daniel Wang]

no idea. The attachment is based on your file at bug 218326.

btw, I'd like to see vivisimo.com listed under Search (I really miss
Northernlight Search)

[Daniel Wang]

gerv, bug 51193 and this bug, which one should be fixed?

Comment 8

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

Daniel: this one :-)

Vivisimo have a Mozilla search plugin on their front page if you are using
Mozilla, so I say we include them as a mutual back-scratching exercise.

Asa: this is the same as the 1.5 bookmarks you reviewed before.

can  someone post a diff of the delta's between this file and the currently
shipping file?

Comment 13

[chris hofmann]

going to - this,  we can take the change if it gets reviewed, but we probly
won't hold the alpha for it.

Comment 14

Attachment: bookmarks.html

Vivismo search and community/ page added
Added the same Quick Searches in Firefox, except the URLs are converted to
Javascript: so that they don't perform invalid searches when accessed from the
Bookmarks menu.

Asa - is now an OK time to do this? If so, please review/approve.

Gerv

Comment 16

[Michael Lefevre]

I'm not sure Asa reads bugmail - has someone asked him about this? could someone
else do the review?

and, in response to chofmann's comment, it's not really worth having a diff - i
just did it and the only significant line that matches is the doctype.  there
are a couple of sites from the old file with new labels, but pretty much all of
the existing bookmarks are removed in favour of the new selection.

Comment 17

[chris hofmann]

looks like we did this in bug http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=237340

Comment 18

[Gervase Markham [:gerv]]

Actually, that's quite a different set. For example, it's missing the useful
QuickSearches and the range of search engines.

Is anyone up for merging, in consultation with Asa, the best bits of the two?

Gerv

[Michael Lefevre]

well if anything further is going to be done, probably best to do it in the bug
that overtook this one...
