On 29 Jul 2002, it is alleged that Bob sauntered in to 
netscape.public.mozilla.mail-news and loudly proclaimed:

>>> There are no user groups on news.mozilla.org, right?
>>> These are all developer groups?
>> 
>> The user groups are listed below.
> 
> I don't see a list.

'Below' referred to the sig.

>>> 2. All the newsgroup names display as only the first letters (except the
>>> last word that is spelled out).
>>> For example, this group is displayed as "n.p.m.mail-news" which 
>>> *could* be acceptable for a lot of groups but there are some 
>>> "ott.jobs" and "ont.jobs" that are unreadable since they both shorten 
>>> to "o.jobs".
>>

> I shouldn't have to it in a .js file when it can easily be a preference

Man, you have /no/ idea what kind of hot water you're edging towards with a 
statement like that, however innocently meant.  There are already people 
screaming that Edit | Preferences is too cluttered.  (Hmm . . . where's 
J�nas?)  Even so, it's easily enough changed, as are a lot of prefs in Moz 
once you get the hang of it.  And the full name appears in the titlebar, 
just in case. . . .
