Don't use mozilla.dev.apps.firefox

Post by patrickjdempsey »

After years of being overrun with porn spam, they finally decided to shut the door on the notoriously unprofessional site which users and addons developers are continually sent to, to keep them off of Bugzilla. Apparently, official support for mozilla.dev.apps.firefox has been over for a year now, but Google hasn't locked the group yet... so it continues to accumulate porn spam.

mozilla.dev.apps.firefox as an active group, but it's no longer used
for Firefox development discussion. The bug to remove the group is
<https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=871282>.

This group has been superceded (superseded, if spelling counts) by the
mailing list at <https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/firefox-dev>.

See
<http://www.gavinsharp.com/blog/2013/02/26/announcing-the-firefox-dev-mailing-list/>
for information about what prompted the change.
Tip of the day: If it has "toolbar" in the name, it's crap.
