VanguardLH,

Have you tried asking at the mozilla.support.firefox newgroup?


That's if you can past their moderator


My apologies for butting in, but do you have any idea where I post
Win32 - FF programming related questions with any hope of getting a
reply ? I've tried a few newsgroups (based on their names) on
news.mozilla.org, but either the post didn't turn up or was done in a
pretty-much empty one (but had to try regardless).

The thing is that I've been figuring out how to use FFs (16, later
52) DLLs to set up an SLL connection (works), but have no idea how to
verify an incoming certificate (upto the CA). In short, I have no
idea what the callback in SSL_AuthCertificateHook should contain.

Regards, Rudy Wieser

Rudy, as others are suggesting, getting a post to appear on the
mozilla.support.firefox news group on the news.mozilla.org news server,
but, if you're willing to wait a bit whilst your post get moderated, it
should, eventually, appear. SHOULD!

Another option ... I use the SeaMonkey Internet Suite (think Firefox
Browser + Thunderbird Email & News Client + HTML Composer +) and if I
want to find out what the developers are doing, I check out the
mozilla.dev.apps.seamonkey newsgroup. I would expect there to be a
similar mozilla.devs.apps.firefox newsgroup, but it's probably moderated
as well, so you might have to wait there as well.

Another possibility could be irc://moznet/firefox on the
irc://irc.mozilla.org/ irc server. Maybe some Firefox Devs hang out there.

HTH
