- Reviewed a persistant FTP resume patch.
- Finished moving callers to new nsIComponentRegistrar. I left a few callers alone. First group is the component loaders. They are still privy to some internal knowledge of how the component manager works. Until we need to define the interface between a loader and the component manager, I feel that we can leave these call sites alone. I also left the plugin code alone. For whatever historical reason, this code reaches behind the component managers back and accesses the component registry directly. This is bad and will break as soon as I change the registry format. I didn't fix this because I was too worried about regressions prior to mozilla 1.0. The last item I did not convert was the python connect code. I have contacted the owner regarding this matter.
- nsIModule and nsIComponentRegistrar interfaces have been reviewed and will be checked in as soon as the tree opens again. See my posting in the xpcom newsgroup for more information.
