Major Topics for This Week

Beta Status
We are not releasing a beta this week. We made the decision that rendering performance (panning and checkerboarding) was not good enough for a beta release. Patrick and BenWa started work on using GL-layers in Gecko/Android to improve rendering performance. Work has also started on off-main thread compositing (OMTC) to make panning more responsive. Erin and Alex are working on schedule impact and planning.
  • We don't know if this means Fx11 is not the release for Native. We are working to answer that today or tomorrow.
  • Work continues to drive down crashes, improve stability and improve UI responsiveness.
GL-Layers and OMTC
Work to convert mobile to use GL backed layers is happening at breakneck speed. We should have a demo of the GL-layers work at today's Mobile Demo meeting.
  • We will use the Maple branch to continue the GL work
  • Builds are available and Fennec is demoable.
  • Working to get estimates on timelines and collateral breakage
ARMv6 Status
Ted and Mike have got armv6 starting up. See Ted's tweet.
  • We need to stamp out any other ARMv6-related crashes
  • We need to look at performance characteristics
Chrome for Android
ICS-only and no Flash, but a pretty solid release otherwise. How do we match up?
