I will have more time in a couple days. A quick thought though...if your going to support a protocol wouldn't it make sense to support it fully ... else not. I guess in my eyes its more cut and dried... It either works or its broken. I didn't understand the one concept of that gopher is not used much so why fix it. Another idea before I head to work. Now all the browsers spun off of it are also broke. This would be a good teaching tool as an example for students about implications of leaving broken/ bad code in an application. I think Moz would have been better off to not support gopher at all, perhaps they could have an external application (like lynx) handle gopher for them ;) Later heading to work...
