Roundtable

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)

Callek

• Probably unable to attend this meeting again :(
• Worked on DLMGR more
• Actively reviewing patches to comm-central's client.py (and watching other build* bugs in that area)

KaiRo

• As always, my blog has more detailed status about my work

mcsmurf

• Continued working on bug 453797 (Port Bug 392303 (Simplify installer changes) to SeaMonkey installer), patch is almost ready for review, need to fix some small things
• The patch will probably be one big patch, will try to separate the patch into smaller patches

Misak

• bug 36810 (session restore)
• bug 459550 (Port Bug 448976 (turn the Session Restore prompt into an error page) to SeaMonkey)
• bug 425480 (non-ASCII characters should be decoded in the urlbar)
• bug 455877 (port Bug 254714 to SeaMonkey)
• Bug reporting and bug triage.

Standard8

• Gave gristmill a try on Thunderbird. Potentially good QA tool, give feedback to them and start using it.
• Thunderbird release driving work now almost zero, back to fixing bugs!

Any other business?

• Someone will need to look into porting kill-rdf stuff to SeaMonkey, as the kill-rdf repository is now at the point where the main folder setup is now entirely divorced from RDF. I (jcranmer) would nominate such a bug to be blocking SM 2.0, but I am not a SM developer.
  • If this repo landing breaks seamonkey, then it is *definately* blocking, and I'd suggest blocking the landing. (--Justin Wood (Callek))
  • If not, I'd say "wanted SM2" but not "blocking" ;-) (--Justin Wood (Callek))
