== Prioritization of A2 at-risk features == | |||
* at risk is: RSS, tab overflow, some platform pieces | |||
* RSS is a really, really nice to have | |||
** competitive with IE7, more use of RSS in productivity products in the new Office and Vista | |||
** still not a significant majority of web users use RSS | |||
* want to hold to the A2 schedule as-is | |||
* consider having an A3 based on how the RSS work does | |||
** '''action item:''' beltzner and schrep to crisp up the schedule for what ship date looks like with and without the A3 | |||
* platform risk priorities: (1) WHATWG offline storage, (2) (tie) JS 1.7, (2) (tie) SVG Fixes, (3) cairo uplift | |||
* '''action item:''' continue on course for A2, check up on status of RSS and platform pieces and consider an A3 when those things are ready | |||
