Project News
- Moe (Spet, 16 2006): I have tried to contact stuart on irc who idles both #seneca and #camino. I think he will be the go to guy if we have any questions in regards to OS X related Mozilla stuff. He should be able to point us to the right direction.
- September 16, 2006 - Dave is looking into getting Mac hardware access for this, and should know soon. Also, you want to ping mento for this, not stuart. mento is in #seneca.
- September 22, 2006 - Moe and Phil ventured through the firefox code and found some implementations of the osx keychain that were disabled. We enabled those options and Moe will recompile the code over night so we can further our tests tomorrow.
