At the 4/20/2006 dev.platform/content meeting we discussed the idea of shooting for early June to get a set of builds together for widepread testing and feedback on the current state of the trunk.  We will need more work on the blocking bug lists, more updates on the landing plan, and some more feedback accross the project to see if the early June stake in the ground makes sense.

The table below has the large features that either have already landed in Gecko 1.9 or are planned to land.  There's another feature list at [[Firefox3/Gecko_Feature_List]].  The list may not be complete; please add as needed if you're working on something or planning to.  The list should primarily include architecture changes that are either considered blockers for 1.9 or have significant regression risk (or both).

http://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko_1.9_Roadmap may have inspiration for things to include (assuming they're actually being worked on or planned).  Please do NOT add pure wishlist items to the list -- if it's not being worked on or seriously planned, it shouldn't be here.
