[gopher] Mozilla gopher bug
I just got pygopherd installed for the first time, and was playing
around with it. Noticed that I was running into several problems, and
discovered through some searching that my problem was that I was using
Mozilla to try and browse Gopher sites. Turns out, Gopher is broken
pretty bad in Mozilla right now. I could fall back to Netscape 4 or
Lynx, but I'd rather see a more modern implementation (and once with a
growing userbase) actually succeed, and it could use some help.
Bug 194220 (http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=194220) has
been filed as a meta bug for all the current Gopher issues with
Mozilla. This includes issues with the current 1.4 alpha release. The
more people that can test out Gopher issues, or who just go and vote
for this bug, the more exposure it can get and hopefully Mozilla can
be a viable Gopher client again.
