ok, here's your heads up that I'm going to need some ports work so that I can land http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206379. I've done the work on mac, windows, and unix and it is pretty straight forward. I've just asked for reviews, and I plan to land as soon as those reviews are finished... so if you're working on one of the non-Unix ports, you need to attach a patch to the bug before the reviews are complete! This bug involves totally revamping the nsICharsetConverterManager interface to actually be sane, but in doing the work I've found some platform-specific code in widget/, gfx/, and intl/ that needs some help. It shouldn't take more than 20 minutes or so on each platform. you just have to apply the patch, and start your build - when things break, you need to look at what the new API does. the conversions for the big 3 platforms are really straight forward. in particular, see this comment: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206379#c5 for details on what the patch does. And of course, I could use reviewers - the patch is big and could use lots of eyes. Alec
