2005/8/1, Joe Marcus Clarke <marcus@freebsd.org>: > Why do we need this when we now have localized firefox-zh_CN and > firefox-zh_TW ports? well...:) I am the summitter & maintainer of firefox-zh_CN,firefox-zh_TW,firefox-ja_J= P. But those ports are just supply localized menu and some settings. In other word, they are just **LANGUAGE PACK** instead of real & compelete application. There's still something to be fixed which **LANGUAGE PACK** cann't. Why firefox still need CJK patch? It's a good question. Please take a look at http://bbs.ilc.edu.tw/chinsan/dokuwiki/ Sorry for my poor English :-p I think use screenshot will speaks louder than words :) However, many CJK users may live in pains of surfing website and choose their font familyname, if ths patch cann't commit. (ps.fortunate, the CJK family name has fixed in mozilla 1.7.11, aka. www/mozilla-devel) Regards, -chinsan
