FFe - Prism should be updated to new upstream version 1.0b1

Confirmed, thank you.

Erm... if you want to get something sponsored, we need a source package that's ready to be uploaded.

I'm unsubscribing the Sponsors' Team for now. Please re-subscribe when ready.

I'm maintaining that package. It's in my PPA. It needs xulrunner-1.9.1, which entered jaunty/universe just before UDS, so i can update jaunty now. I just wanted a release instead of a snapshot but I guess I can just push my latest tested snapshot and update it when upstream creates the next release (probably 0.9.2).

reassigned micah who is now working on this.

subscribed motu-release as I am not sure if i got FFe rights this time again for mozilla'ish stuff like prism (cannot remember any details about delegations for this cycle being send out, but maybe i just missed it).

So basically, prism seems to be in bad shape with xulrunner 1.9.1 ... getting the latest upstream in is probably the only feasible way forward.

asac: Final freeze for Universe starts 1200 UTC on Sunday, so you are still
good.

This bug was fixed in the package prism - 1.0~b2+svn20090813r49078-0ubuntu1
