MIR for webfav:

1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/w/webfav; available for all supported architectures
2. Rationale:
    * Dependency of ubuntu-netbook-remix
3. Security:
    * No CVE entries.
    * No Secunia history.
    * Any binaries running as root or suid/sgid ? Any daemons ? 
    * No network activity directly -- it stores favourites for firefox.
    * Does not directly process binary or structured data.
    * No source code review.
4. Quality assurance:
    * Package works out of the box.
    * No debconfage.
    * Package is not in Debian.
    * Upstream is calm.
    * Upstream bug tracker: https://bugs.launchpad.net/webfav
    * No hardware requirements.
    * No test suite.
5. UI standards:
    * User-visible strings are internationalized using standard gettext system ? No, the XPI system.
    * Package with translatable strings builds a PO template during package build ? No, see previous.
    * End-user applications ship a desktop file ? No.
6. Standards compliance:
    * Complies with FHS and Debian Policy.
    * Mozilla-devscripts + CDBS, no patch system. A little bit odd, but that's Mozilla for you.
7. Dependencies:
    * All Build-Depends are in main, except it Depends on netbook-launcher, which is currently in universe.
8. Maintenance:
    * How much maintenance is this package likely to need ? Not much.
    * Who is responsible for monitoring the quality of this package and fixing its bugs ? Are they Ubuntu or Debian developers ? The mobile team.
9. Background information:
    * The general purpose and context of the package should be clear from the package's debian/control file. If it isn't then please explain.
    * Upstream calls this software webfav.
10. Internationalization:
    * Are graphical applications translatable? Do they support gettext? Not a graphical application.

** Changed in: webfav (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New
