The section numbers in the policy are very frequently referenced during reviews of requests to add new root certificates to the NSS store.  In the recent update of the www.mozilla.org Web site, all the section numbers on this page were changed to bullets.  The section numbers must be restored.  

Reproducible: Always




The current rendering of the page severely impacts the ability to add new root certificates to the repertoire of Mozilla and related products.

Have other www.mozilla.org pages been similarly affected?  If those pages involve policies with section numbers or they involve instructions that must be followed in sequence, they too must be corrected.  This is especially critical where one section refers to another by section number.

It looks like this was a general problem with the new design's styling -- li elements were set to use a certain style and that was applying to both unordered and ordered lists.  I commented that out and the numbers have come back.

Closing as fixed.  If we'd like to bring back the pretty styling for unordered lists, we can open a new bug.

It looks like this change has caused a problem with the display of the community ticker -- I'm now seeing bullets on the dividing line between the ticker and the projects bar.

I'm sure there's an easy fix here for someone who knows CSS better than I do -- we just need to add the old style back but have it not apply for li tags in an ol tag. Steven, any suggestions for a fix?

Should be fixed in r51283.
