- Will the guid-work branch be implemented in 24.x, or is it reserved for a future version of Pale Moon? Or is it something ongoing?
- Seeing the recent NSS commit, I was wondering if the versions of NSS in Pale Moon, Firefox and Firefox ESR the same?
- Is there some way I could view the commits without PM hanging? I know there's a lot of work going on, but seriously, those pages feel like a browser benchmark.

A few questions, some of them a bit newbie-ish:
Re: Github commits
The guid-work branch is a work in progress (ongoing feature branch). I do plan to switch GUID but I've run into some snags as far as a number of jetpack add-ons is concerned (that hard-code firefox guids inside the add-on) so it may have to wait until the Pale Moon add-ons site is up and running.access2godzilla wrote:A few questions, some of them a bit newbie-ish:

Currently, NSS is indeed synchronized across those three products.
The browser hanging on particularly large commits is unfortunately a problem with Github's web scripting. I suggest you get a tool like SourceTree (depending on which OS you normally use) as a GUI for Git to examine code and diffs.

Re: Github commits
It's good to hear that extension compatibility is the only thing preventing the GUID change. However, I was asking about the planned dual GUID system in particular.
Re: Github commits
The dual GUID (for extensions) is operational already. Firefox extensions can be installed with Pale Moon having a different GUID.access2godzilla wrote:It's good to hear that extension compatibility is the only thing preventing the GUID change.
