It's a sub-class of nsAtom, useful for cases where you know you are dealing
exclusively with static atoms. The nice thing about it is that you can use
raw nsStaticAtom pointers instead of RefPtr<>. (In fact, the AddRef/Release
implementations ensure that we'll crash if we use RefPtr<nsStaticAtom>.)

mozilla.* Usenet group, or on IRC at irc.mozilla.org. [The Mozilla news groups
are accessible on Google Groups, or news.mozilla.org with a NNTP reader.]
You can download nightly development builds from the Mozilla FTP server.
Keep in mind that nightly builds, which are used by Mozilla developers for
testing, may be buggy. Firefox nightlies, for example, can be found at:
