2017-03-28 Thread zbraniecki
Hi Firefox devs! We just landed the final change that culminates the 3 month long major refactor of how Gecko handles language selection [0] (pending autoland->central). We now have a single new API - mozilla::intl::LocaleService [1] (and mozILocaleService [2]) - which centralizes all operation
