Re: Largest chunks of code that are likely to be removable?
There's a bunch of XPConnect code that can go away when we finally kills nsDOMClassInfo. We're 95% of the way there, just lacking will to push it over the line.

Re: Largest chunks of code that are likely to be removable?
Would anyone be opposed to combining the Matrix4x4 class and gfx3DMatrix? Rather than adding support for transforms and projections that involve vertices behind the w=0 plane to gfx3DMatrix, it may be cleaner to refactor affected call-sites to use Matrix4x4 instead. The remaining references to gfx3DMatrix would be very few and easily replaced as well.

The mailnews catch-all bug for removing RDF is https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=mail-killrdf. Off the top of my head, the biggest use is as a hashtable for folder URIs to folder objects (which could easily be replaced in a pinch), but it's also used in a minor way in the account creation dialog, as well as the backing store for RSS. The RDF templating widget feature, though, is used in about four places in Thunderbird and much, much more in SeaMonkey. -- Joshua Cranmer Thunderbird and DXR developer Source code archæologist ___ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform

I think dzbarsky was in the process of converting gfx3DMatrix use to Matrix4x4, I'm not sure what happened or if he's still working on it. I think people would be quite happy if you finished it off. CC'ing dzbarsky to see if he has any updates. kats ___ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
