=== Action Items ===

* —

'''OPEN'''

** {{bug|1107635}} - Rewrite build system l10n repack rules from Makefile rules into a Python script might also affect a timely l10n repacks but there has been no movement in it for some time.

** {{bug|1372167}} - Unify l10n.ini and filter.py into a single (python-independent) format for comm-central apps has now been checked in. There are still parts missing in toolkit but this might change the l10n build system again.

* Google API key for Safe Browsing V2, V4 and Geolocation. Ewong/Callek about getting it loaded onto the build machines.

** Per {{bug|903439#c10}}, ewong confirmed that he has the Google API key. Safe Browsing keys are on the builders according to ewong. The build config changes need to be revised.

* Notes:

** For reference only: Building with gtk2 has been disabled and can no longer be done starting with Gecko 53 / SeaMonkey 2.50 {{bug|1278282}}.

** '''Ewong''' did set up a cron job to do semi regular builds on the loaner machine. The MAC builders can be updated to OSX 10.9. He needs to consult with '''Callek''' first about this.

* SeaMonkey 2.48 will be the next release tracked in {{Bug|1351984}} (general beta issues in {{bug|1328886}}).

** '''ewong''' has wrapped up building 2.48, including localized and Mac OSX builds.

** Release notes in {{Bug|1336315}}, ready to go.

** Updates from older SeaMonkey versions will not work for 2.48. '''ewong''' gave up making this work. We will announce this everywhere and on the project page. This does not affect Linux distributions which do their own builds.

*** See also {{Bug|652063}} (Enable localized ChatZilla builds).

** There are at least three problems with gtk3 builds which may not be resolved in time ({{Bug|1269145}}, {{Bug|1267982}}, {{Bug|1331208}}).

** A regression for gtk2 builds since 2.40 has been identified but is limited to certain desktop themes and doesn't seem to affect the most current OS version ({{bug|1312215}}).

* In Gecko 52 obsolete toolkit parts were removed in {{bug|1312143}}. This may cause problems with older add-ons when SeaMonkey 2.49 hits the road. The 2.49 release notes should mention it. Chatzilla and DOMi were affected and were fixed.

* There is a new build variable: MOZ_ALLOW_LEGACY_EXTENSIONS=1. It is currently set to true (1) and has also been put into SeaMonkeys confvar.sh to play it safe.

=== 2.x (Last, Current, Next) ===

* SeaMonkey Statistics can be viewed at [https://dataviz.mozilla.org/t/public/views/SeamonkeyADI/VersionChannelADI?:embed=y#1 https://dataviz.mozilla.org] Across all channels we have an approximate ADU of 120k.

** Of the released versions, as of Tuesday 12th March, we have A% on 2.0, B% on 2.1-2.3, C% on 2.4-2.6, D% on 2.7-2.9, E% on 2.10-2.12, F% on 2.13, G% on 2.14, H% on 2.15 and I% on 2.16.-->

* See [[SeaMonkey/StatusMeetings/Basics|Basics]] page for the usual reminders.

==== 2.46 current release ====

** '''IanN''' suggests doing small patches which are easier to review.

* There are reports that the PayPal donation on the website doesn't work for USD. It seems the amount is converted to Euro (probably correct if it is a German account).

=== Roundtable - Personal Status Updates ===

Status Updates from developers - what are you working on, what's the progress, any other comments? (feel free to add yourself to the list if your name is missing and you have interesting status).

Waiting for review or feedback:

* {{Bug|1370314}} SeaMonkey 06/2017 installer rollup. Waiting for feedback what should be taken. Probably not much more right now. Took some parts to other bugs.

=== Any other business?  ===
