* no followups from last week
* 0.9
** shipped RC1 yesterday, no feedback yet, somewhat unnerving. dbuc will bang on it this afternoon
** drew found docs bug in Context Menu API, should be updated before release. landed earlier today. will spin RC2 later today.
** might be another one about using "postMessage" instead of "sendMessage", from dbuc. myk will check it out.
** wbamberg is working on better docs on content-scripts (not for 0.9, yes for 0.10)
** release now scheduled for thursday, one day late
* Flightdeck
** did new release ("1.0a5.1", somewhat between 1.0a5 and 1.0a6), now compatible with minefield
** 1.0a6 tasks are coming along
** wbamberg will send a suggested api-parser patch to brian today
** Chowse will do UX review early next week, hopefully results available by tuesday meeting
** security review: several bugs found, 6 still open
* 0.10
** myk will ping individuals to figure out time commitments, what features each developer will have time for
** when tree thaws for 0.10, we'll thaw the Git repo, not the Hg one. The switch to git is now.
* roundtable
** FF4.0b6 is target for 0.9 - GC compartments changes are making trunk change too fast to keep up with
*** warner will find out what's the deal with the buildbot project and report back next week. It'd be nice to have one. Might help keep track of jetpack-vs-FF-trunk.
** dbuc: new Fx UI elements. Yes, the plan is to have Panel API create "pointy panels" on windows (upside-down speech bubbles)
** myk says: please help write 0.9 release notes: add to wiki page
** are people ready for git? do people know what to do? what ssh key should be used for the git->hg bridge?
*** plan is to maintain hg tree, only changed by git->hg robot, to avoid changes to releng/buildbot infrastructure
*** new git repo will be mozilla/addon-sdk, myk will create it
*** brian will check with github crew to make sure the new repo is seen as a parent (renaming repo and changing username at the same time, might mess up github 'network' / fork heritage)
** 0.10 will try to be compatible with nightlies but it won't be a blocker
** selenium test for flightdeck: should it use FF3.6 or 4.0b6? answer: do 4.0b6 first. Aim for same criteria as SDK: latest FF4 beta, then nightlies if possible.
** goodbye to Nick.. thanks for everything!
