General Priorities for All Team Members

These priorities apply to all team members at all times:

Resolve security bugs rated sg:moderate or higher.
Review requests older than one week.

These should be taken care of before any other work is done.

Individual Priorities

These priority lists should reflect the work that each individual is planning to do, in the order in which they plan to do it.

Only networking team members should be changing priorities. If you have questions about priorities or anything else on this list please email the relevant person or Josh Aas (networking team manager).

Michal Novotny

bug 436414, OCSP client should be able to use HTTP GET as well as POST
bug 558253, Proxy Auto Config (PAC) Extended functions for multi-resolution and ipv6

Jason Duell

Top Priorities:

Bug 558623 - e10s HTTP: combine PHttpChannel constructor with SendAsyncOpen/SendRedirect1Begin. Jason will do this.
[NEEDSBUG]: make JAR channels seekable. Jason will do this.
Bug 746073 - Meter network usage per "web app". Jason will do this.

Future:

781392 mochi.tests hitting proxy error on B2G hardware
