8 Yeah, IMHO the whole mozilla stuff has been grown too big.
9 nspr already should be fall apart into several packages, the
10 XUL core another one, each XUL toolkit for each own, etc, etc.

12 This would make developing much, much easier and most of the patches
13 don't have to be ported across several branches (ie. moz vs. ff),
14 since these branched package would be quite small, but sitting on
15 top of several libs.

17 But this of course is an upstream issue ...
