Re: legacy compatibility code
Bug fixes are documented in the changelog.
I'm not sure what the legacy compatibility code in question was, but presumably it did something that is now handled by other code, or maybe it was for Firefox 2.x.

Re: legacy compatibility code
Yes, I removed code branches which made sense only for compatibility with Firefox 2 and very early 3.0.x versions (before nsITraceableChannel was implemented).

Re: legacy compatibility code
So supported Firefox would be 3.0.4 and up to be precise?

Re: legacy compatibility code
Yes, I didn't specify because I remembered AMO wouldn't allow 3.0.n min version compatibility declarations, but it turns out it supports 3.0.9 (not sure of why, exactly), so I've set it minutes ago.dhouwn wrote:So supported Firefox would be 3.0.4 and up to be precise?
