* DASH Design/Implementation
* Fix two security bugs assigned to me.
** Integrate libdash code (from ITEC, Austria) for MPD Parsing
* {{nbug|Bug 497003}}: support sending OnDataAvailable() to other threads
** DONE: Parse XML into DOM
* Help implement new disk cache
** DONE: Parse DOM into MPD classes from libdash (converting stdlib types etc.)
*** Code uploaded to {{bug|734546}} for feedback
** DONE Create DASHMediaResource, nsDASHEncoder and nsDASHReader as proxy classes to manage audio and video substreams for WebM/DASH
** Experiment switching between video streams
** Create MatroskaManager/Parser; read a single URL to nsMediaCache
* Framework for DNS Host resolver changes {{bug|14328}} and {{bug|545866}}
** Exploring a set of APIs/interfaces to abstract nsHostResolver from the API call used for resolution; something like the nsDNSRecord being a Runnable called from nsHostResolver threads.
** DONE: Upload (for feedback) a base framework for multiple resolution types/functions (using existing cache and thread pool) {{bug|735967}}
* DNS Prefetching Optimizations
** Hints API
* Other DNS bugs
** Commented on {{bug|699055}} "fix getaddrinfo detection", an NSPR bug

General Priorities for All Team Members

These priorities apply to all team members at all times:

  1. Resolve security bugs rated sg:moderate or higher.
  2. 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).
