As part of our build system work we're trying to polish off the
long-tail of Makefile.in conversion to moz.build. It was starting to
feel a bit intractable, so I hacked up a script[1] and generated a
simple html output of the remaining Makefiles, sorted by size:
http://people.mozilla.org/~tmielczarek/makefiles/stats.html

The 'Lines' column is the number of non-empty, non-comment lines in the
file, and the 'Bugs' column is any bugs filed tracking work that will
remove part of that file. This file is generated on a daily cron from
mozilla-central.

This has already proven helpful to remove some Makefiles from the tree
in the past few days, so if you're interested in helping out, take a
look at some of the files that don't have bugs filed and see if there's
anything you can fix! If you have questions feel free to ask #build on
irc.mozilla.org. If you file a new bug you can update this etherpad[2]
to get it added to the stats.html output.
