Features
Lessen the showing of the what's new page
Owner: Lawrence to follow up with releng team.
- bug 459972, which addresses updating the snippets XML files, is complete
- bug 682805, which addresses updating the snippets generator, has a patch and is in progress
Removal of OS security dialog for Windows
Owner: Brian
Add-ons Default to Compatible
Owner: Chris following up.
Apply update on shutdown
Owner: Ehsan
New workflow for updating users with incompatible add-ons
Owner: Rob to work with Asa.
Lessen the display of app update UI
Owner: Rob
- Rob will speak with security and Limi to get a number of how long to wait to prompt.
- Rob will speak with Tim about optimizing the display of the update dialog.
- From Asa: Waiting 24 or 36 hours before updating prompt. I think this would be a simple patch to change that value and I'd try to get this into 8 still. Would need a patch ASAP though. Security's already said they're OK lengthening it.
Getting the word out
- Blog post by Brian
- Blog post by Mitchell - need link once published
Other
- Request from Asa: For Windows users pplying a partial update, at least, the update on launch dialog could be hidden for most users I think. It's only a few seconds and I'd like to see if we could change this to not show unless more than 3 or 4 seconds have passed. If this is a trivial patch, I'd try to get it into 9.
