Comment 116 for bug 308181

Another poor soul pleading for updates on this bug. Given the context (a *ten year old* bug) I would personally argue that this is not even bad form anymore.

Please, Mozilla, please fix this. This is the one thing preventing people from being able to set up cheap hosting easily. The only functionally equivalent alternative is lots of heartbeat hosts and very low TTL DNS records, which is a strain on both administration of those hosts and on the DNS system.

Everybody will benefit from this. I beg of you, somebody, please at least tell us what is going on here. Why is nobody working on it?

To put my money where my mouth is: I am willing to actually pay money to whoever decides to implement this. Not much, but if a few other people chip in I bet we could make at least a modest sum. It will definitely save me the hosting costs, so I think it would be worth it.
