Layers

Some TODOs for b1.

General Platform

Camera

• Slipping the last of the platform pieces that aren't NPOTB for firefox into the tree today. (565843 needs approval2.0)
• Dealing with a fun bug that a previous patch exposed (Bug 594964)

QA

Manual

• QA is having a work week, so take this opportunity to take to your 2.0 feature QA for anything that they should know.
• Notes:
  • Builds are complete broken over the past 2-3 days. We can't provide any test coverage on a lot of bugs until builds are actually stable. So why are we still landing front end things?
    • Builds are crashing
      • Others: bug 596482, bug 596289, bug 596433, bug 594563
    • Pages don't load because the content process crashes
    • Finally, why the hell is tinderbox green across the board when all of our builds are crashing on startup?
    • Finallyx2, why did we not branch before jagermonkey landed?
    • Finallyx3, where was the testing on ARM for jagermonkey before it landed?
• New Bugs over the week: filed
• Beta Tester Tools landed
• Results from nightly Smoketest runs.
• MobiFx Testday Results
