Gecko has a very well working hyphenation and this part of the spec looks stable enough. So we should remove the prefix.

Does the last call issues list for the spec look like it's not going to lead to hyphenation-related changes?

Last hyphenation-related changes were from 1 September 2011 to 19 January 2012: http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-css3-text-20120119/#recent-changes
Firefox supports the current spec.

There are no hyphenation-related bugs or testcases:

Unprefix the -moz-hyphens property and add a temporary alias for -moz-hyphens ==> hyphens. Conversions of existing tests done in a separate patch.

Switch tests to use unprefixed hyphens property

This property and it's property value definitions have been stable for a while and implemented in prefixed form across IE/Webkit/Gecko for some time. Only Chrome lacks support for this.

Our implementation includes support for a wide set of languages and I don't see any significant bug logged against hyphenation currently. I think we should do the unprefixing for the FF43 release.

Fix up minor omission in property_database.js, need to include alias explicitly.

Given all this, and that there have still been no changes to css-text-3 about hyphenation since the Last Call, and there are no open issues on it, I think it's safe to unprefix.

Can you send an Intent to Ship mail to dev-platform about this?  https://wiki.mozilla.org/WebAPI/ExposureGuidelines is geared towards DOM APIs, but we tend to use it for CSS features too (e.g. see Mats' display:contents Intent to Ship mail from a few months ago, for example).  I don't expect anyone to have problems with this.  I suggest mentioning in the mail that you plan to enable this at the end of this week, just to give people a few days to respond.

Yes, planning to do exactly this sometime this week!
