Part of the Firefox 3 plan is to revamp the security indicators. The current UI is created (I won't say "designed") by software developers, the new UI will be designed by folks trained to design UI. Don't know what they'll come up with, but I'm looking forward to it. Can we stop arguing about it now? Or at least wait until we have a design proposal to argue about? > You also insist in keeping > it this way, by providing a distinctive color for EV and nothing else! > No improvement of other shortcomings! Who keeps insisting that? Certainly not Gerv whom you've been addressing. The Mozilla folks have been rather insistent we are NOT going with a "Green for Go!" strategy, but other than that the design is still unspecified. If we're not going with a green bar it will quite obviously have to have something else, which is quite the opposite of nothing. _______________________________________________ dev-security mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-security
