SeaMonkey Meeting Details

• Time: August 24, 2010, 12:00 UTC
• Location: #seamonkey IRC channel

Agenda

• Who's taking minutes? -> Ratty

Action Items

(who needs to do what that hasn't been recorded in a bug) We should assign people to the open items.

NEW

OPEN

CLOSED

K.I.V.

• Get permission from Google to use their geolocation JSON service [KaiRo]. We can still only wait on the Google front right now. Didn't hear anything about open Geolocation service yet. No easy solution in sight.

SeaMonkey 2.0.7

open blockers (0) blocker requests (1) fixed (15)

• Based on Gecko 1.9.1.12, target dates TBD, see Releases.
• Release schedule will be synchronized with the next Firefox 3.5 release (3.5.12).

SeaMonkey 2.1 Alpha 3

open blockers (1) blocker requests (4) targeted (1) fixed (60)

• Has been FROZEN for two weeks now, build 2 is available from FTP, please help testing the Windows updates, so we can release it.
• Release notes, announcements, any other documentation that are still missing. Help wanted.

SeaMonkey 2.1 Beta 1

open blockers (2) blocker requests (3) targeted (1) fixed (11)

• Will probably be only beta, targeted freeze for end of September.

(Further 2.1 scheduling:)

• Please help updating the New 2.1 Features page as we go.
• Plans for 2.1: 6-8 weeks per milestone, b1 in October, and a final in November.
• This seems to match recently presented Firefox 4 plans relatively well - they're in beta now, RC1 is planned for October and Final somewhere "soon" after.
• It would be good to get OOPP (Out Of Process Plugins) for SM2.1 (bug 545716) but we need some way to build libxul (bug 394502) to be able to build OOPP. LDAP work has to be done for that to be possible, the rest should at least build with libxul right now.

Feature List, Planning

Bug statistics for last two (full) weeks: 72 new, 41 fixed, 21 triaged.

• Fix rate is quite good, triage rate rather low. New bugs are to a large part reported from our own team for tracking upcoming or future work and test failures.
• Good further triage targets could come out of looking at the component bug counts, pick yours!

Major wanted/needed features:

2.1

Needing help, Unowned, Stalled

• bug 460953 kill-rdf port.
• bug 436794 Enable Mac OS X system address book per default and add UI.
  • SM UI needed, unowned, helpwanted.
• bug 410613 OpenSearch.
  • The current consensus it to get some basic functionality going with OpenSearch first. And then later to see how much of the old functionality we can reimplement in follow-ups.
• bug 449728 Drag tabs between windows.
• bug 477845 Build a standalone (Gecko 2.0) Composer. [kaze]
  • kaze is currently job hunting so doesn't have much time to spend on this.
  • bug 477840 Backport KompoZer to Composer (Depends on bug 477845).
  • kaze has done a ton of work there. We still need to work out some organizational issues. At the moment there is no active interest from MoMo for bringing standalone composer into comm-central. That's something we (KaiRo and kaze) will have to negotiate with the Thunderbird team (dmose).
• bug 523274 Complete new default theme icon set.
  • A list of TODO icons is up in the bug.
• bug 526210 Update the icon set for the SeaMonkey Modern Theme.
  • Some proposed icons got posted, we should take a look how to get that contribution into the product.
  • The rest is unowned so far.
• bug 576970 Port Sync 1.4 UI to SeaMonkey trunk.

Active

• bug 533908 SeaMonkey Mail: tabs not restored [misak].
  • status/progress?
• bug 569341 Data Manager [KaiRo]
  • KaiRo updated the code for review comments, followed by yet another round of comments coming in. Welcome to the never-ending cycle of Neil's comments. The add-on version up on AMO is 1.0.1 with a lot of fixes from the SeaMonkey work.
• bug 467867 [META] Implement Firefox TabBrowser API in Seamonkey [misak].
  • Misak has ported major items. Follow up bugs and patches have either landed or are in process.
  • In progress: bug 586340 Port bug 562649 set and correctly handle userTypedValue when loading external URIs. TODO: Port bug 570981 Remove URLBarSetURI's aValid parameter.
• bug 566138 Better integration with Windows 7 taskbar.
  • bug 581526 Add SeaMonkey support for the Windows 7 jump list [mcsmurf].
  • status/progress?

We also should take a look at the other items on 2.1-wanted Also the nominations need triaging.

• We will need to take a close look at Lightning, which is mainly targeting Thunderbird.
  • Lightning 1.0 beta 1 is for SM2.0 and TB3.0, 1.0 beta 2 is for TB3.1 (Gecko 1.9.2), 1.0 beta 2 will probably be Gecko 2.0-based.
