** figured out why dtrace probes were double-firing {{bug|403132}}; turns out the Apple linker magic gets confused with -dead_strip enabled.  Only documented the work-around thus far; will at least provide an ugly patch.

** in the process of trying to ensure accuracy of time-attribution by using/augmenting the patch from {{bug|407542}} so we get XPConnect js_Invoke calls too.  General accuracy-wise, it looks like the function names reported (when they are reported) are sufficiently unreliable that it's better to just use the line-numbers that are (more) reliably reported and we can use thanks to our quasi-fancy parsing.  (Based on existing bugs like {{bug|422864}}, it sounds like a non-trivial fix for me to pursue for now.)

emre:
* Bugs
** Still working on blockers {{bug|410747}} and {{bug|422178}}. Both are IMAP threading issues. A new patch using XPCOM proxy mechanism has been submitted. Waiting for review from dbienvenu.
** Other patches have been landed to trunk.
** 1 MIME buffer overflow bug and couple IMAP bugs waiting for attention.
* The system architecture document effort continues. More diagrams and description will be added this week. You can check the diagrams at [http://wiki.mozilla.org/User:Emre/tb/architecture/diagrams System Diagrams]
* Started to work with Dale R. Wiggins to support selective message segment downloads, and to improve offline mode.
