(Thanks to Pav@'s notice)

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

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)
