Protocol handlers are a new feature in Firefox 3.6 that allows links like mailto:nobody@mozilla.org to be handled by a webmail application. In order to do that, the site needs to support a special API described on http://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web-based_protocol_handlers. For en-US, we're currently shipping with GMail and Yahoo! Mail for mailto:, 30boxes for webcal: and Mibbit for irc: urls, and we're on a ongoing evangelism effort to add more. For Maithili, we'd like to do that, too. First, the localization team and Stas (Stas Malolepszy) will look at the market for the language and come up with a good candidates. Rajesh, we'll need your input on this, the guidelines for making recommendations are on <https://wiki.mozilla.org/L10n:Firefox/Productization>. Following that is a reach out by the evangelism team to try to get the vendor to support protocol handlers. Once that happens, Stas will take over in reviewing the actual implementation, which will need to change the gecko.handlerService.* entries in browser/chrome/browser-region/region.properties. Please don't make changes to that file without getting a positive review by Stas or somebody else appointed by Stas/Sethb on a patch for that change upfront. How much of the Hindi work in bug 449201 applies here?

What is for en-US is okay for Maithili.

Any thing more!
Sangeeta, Rajeesh, I've crawled the internet looking for a service in Maithili, but couldn't find any. Given you know more, do we still want to go with en-US defaults, or some of the services showed up in Maithili?

en-US default is fine!
Rajesh, ok, so, given that Hindi, the language you would fall-back to, actually uses defaults, let's go with en-US defaults for Maithili, as well. RESOLVED/FIXED.
