This is a request to make the GB2312V2 converter become the active converter
for contents with Meta=GB2312 in their HTML pages. So far we have been using
Meta=Windows-936 as a test.

Bob- does removing dead code beta1 criteria ? Fixing this will also reduce the
download size. Mark it M15 for now.

The time I need to figure out the size is probably 5 minutes less than the time
I need to fix it. My gut feeling is it will reduce the size of the ucvcn
converter to 2/3 of the current size.
The current uncompressed sie from:
ftp://sweetlou/products/client/seamonkey/windows/32bit/x86/2000-02-18-09-M14/siz
e_matters.txt
is
-rw-r--r-- 1 544 everyone 124800 Feb 18 09:33 ucvcn.dll
I'd suggest this would be worthwhile to reduce our download size prior
to Beta1. I'll nominate for Beta1 and see what PDT team thinks.
Keywords: beta1
Sent over to bobj. Need to know what GB2312 is and who it impacts for beta.
Whiteboard: [NEED INFO]
per bobj mail:
"GB2312 is the encoding used for simplified Chinese used in mainland China.
From a feature perspective, it does not matter if we fix this bug for Beta1.
But since all the Unicode converters are packaged with the complete install, if
we reduce the size of this module, we will reduce the size of all complete
installs. Is this estimated size savings significant enough we want to take
this change.
It should be safe. It's just removing the old converter. We had 2 versions in
the module during our transition from old code to new code.
