Near the end of the release we become extremely conservative about patches to accept; the 3.5.1 release is a quick update to fold in some patches that came up late in the 3.5 release cycle. | ** contrary to some reports on the Internet, this is the usual process for Firefox and software releases; the 3.5 release was strong, stable and solid, and feedback has been extremely positive.

* | * {{bug|753}} work continues apace, with several people building on it. | ||
** If you are doing work that depends in any way on imgIContainer, gfxIImageFrame, nsIImage, you should base them on bug 753. | |||
** | * Decode-on-draw work is happening in {{bug|435296}}. | ||
* Jeff's working on an event profiler that has shown some bugs in imagelib; once those are resolved there will undoubtedly be others. | |||
* #4 topcrasher {{bug|470487}} fix should now be possible that nsWindow refactoring has landed. There have been very few, quite easy to fix regressions from that refactoring. | |||

* | * Ben Newman is working with Henri Sivonen on figuring out what still needs to be done with the generated code in the HTML5 parser (cleanup of the generated code etc, so work on the generator itself). | ||
* | * Josh is almost (completely?) done with XPCOM plugin interface removal and interface consolidation in the plugin module. | ||
* LiveConnect | * Starting to work out what the security model for JetPack's should look like. | ||
* LiveConnect R.I.P. | |||

* Markus Stange is very close to having a completed patch for fullscreen in 1.9.2, {{bug|420491}}. | |||
* 64-bit Mac OS X port blocked on gfx {{bug|493280}}. | |||
* Cocoa NPAPI event model coming along, part of it landed, maybe 70% complete at this point. | |||
=== JS === | === JS === | ||
* landed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200505. big perf win on some benchmarks. | |||
=== Static Analysis === | |||
* | * Dan Witte will be working on static analysis for code cleanup, performance, and correctness improvements | ||
* | * for instance, {{bug|502775}}, {{bug|172937}}, and more seriously JS GC safety - {{bug|421934}} | ||
* suggestions for analysis passes we could use are welcome | |||
