As part of the process of updating the module owners list, I am planning 
to remove obsolete and irrelevant directories from mozilla.org's cvs 
source repository.

The following directories have been identified as obsolete:

  mozilla/calendar
  mozilla/cmd
  mozilla/modules/calendar
  mozilla/network
  mozilla/tripledb
  mozilla/wallet
  mozilla/xpfc
  mozilla/xpfe/AppCores

This directory has been pointed out as possibly obsolete:

  mozilla/shell

And these directories are considered to be irrelevant:

  mozilla/apache
  mozilla/tripledb

If any directories have been erroneously marked obsolete/irrelevant, or 
if you know anything about the status of mozilla/shell, please let me 
know.  Otherwise I plan to cvs remove all files from these directories 
(the cvs equivalent of removing the directories themselves) in the near 
future.

Note that cvs removing the files does not render them irretrievable. You 
will still be able to check them out directly by version or indirectly 
by date, and they can be resurrected if their status changes. Once the 
files are removed, however, the directories that contain them will be 
removed from your local working copy the next time you check out the 
tree using the "prune empty directories" option to cvs (-P), and the 
module owners list will not include them in its list of directories in 
need of an owner.
