[Dvdxul-devs] Misc

[Yvan N. <yva...@gm...>]

Hi,

- I looked a bit on the proxy settings, and apparently, it should be
transparent for us. We just have to set the preferences (open
"about:config" in Firefox and type "proxy" in the filter field to get
the list) and it should be used automatically. Great news, isn't it ?
- About the membership thing.. I wanted to use the mozilla's password
manager but it seems it is not possible to use it with xulrunner :S So
I'll guess we have to handle that ourselves if we want to store it,
maybe with a simple Base64, or some kind of hashing (which would be
kind of silly, as the user woud still have to enter his password.. so
it would be as easy not to store it). So basically we have to decide
if we want to store the login and/or the password, and if yes, how to
do it.

It would be great if I could get some feedback on the database scheme
and what we should add to it. I really think that once that will be
"frozen", we will be able to work on DvdXul at a greater pace.
