299870 - Create Narcissus keyword

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(bugzilla.mozilla.org :: Administration, task)

Description

It would be nice to be able to track Narcissus work in Bugzilla with a proper
component.

Asa and I were talking about some of the pros and cons of having a
component/product devoted to Narcissus.

Since Narcissus won't be a large or heavily populated component (I think Brendan
and I are the only people really working on it) I almost would consider just
making it a component in Core. The problem with this is that it really isn't a
"core" product (as none of the products depend on it).

I guess it could be a Product with a component of "General" for now. Other
suggestions are welcome.

we've been talking about moving JavaScript:* into its own product...

We already have Other Applications, i'd rather add Narcissus there than create a
General (that's asking for trouble).

Asa's objection to putting it in Other Applications is that that component is
usually for "heavy" XUL-type apps, and Narcissus doesn't really fit that
profile. If this is the straw that creates a Javscript product, I'd go with
that, too.

We now have a keyword, so I guess I can mark this as FIXED.
