SeaMonkey Meeting Details

• Time: November 30, 2010, 13:00 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 2.0.11

open blockers (1) blocker requests (0) fixed (32)

• Based on Gecko 1.9.1.16, target date December 9, see Releases, in sync with Firefox 3.5.16.
• Builds are available on FTP for testing.

SeaMonkey 2.0.12

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

• Based on Gecko 1.9.1.17, target date TDB, see Releases, in sync with Firefox 3.5.17.

SeaMonkey 2.1 Beta 2

open blockers (1) blocker requests (3) targeted (1) fixed (57)

(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, b2 (feature freeze) probably in early December; final to be decided later.
  • We'll probably close for the beta2 once SyncUI has landed.
• Unsure how this fits Firefox 4 plans as they are still trying to get to their feature freeze.
• Firefox 4 now officially being in early 2011, which gives us a bit more time.
  • As Firefox is now going RC in January, it makes sense to do a short-cycle b3 and try to match it with FF4RC. We can then make make b3 the final feature and string freeze, to be followed by 2.1pre.
• Beta 1 on PPC is broken.
  • We will get 64bit boxes going soon and then we'll switch trunk to i386/x86_64 universal builds and stop generating PPC.

Feature List, Planning

Bug statistics for last two (full) weeks: 38 new, 20 fixed, 22 triaged.

• Fix rate is dropping, probably not too many reviews happening. Can we improve?
• Good further triage targets could come out of looking at the component bug counts, pick yours!
• Proposed SeaMonkey Triage Week
  • status/progress?

Major wanted/needed features:

2.1

  • 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).
