Sure, probably, but your sentence > this go in part of the proposal to > migrate from the OOo toolkit (VCL) to the XUL toolkit that Firefox and > Thunderbird uses is very easily (mis)understood that way. >From the chaos about our "new" extensions system that happened after OOoCon because some people communicated too sloppy I learned that it is necessary to be very exact in everything related to OOo and Mozilla, especially if you talk to non-developers (the majority of members on this list are no developers, I assume). So I just mentioned that there wasn't any proposal to migrate from VCL to XUL. Some developers evaluated XUL for dialogs but even this was discarded for several reasons.
