Build Status
- Pushed out beta2 build #2 today
- Build #2 was needed as PGO was accidentally disabled for build #1
- RelEng caught it, awesome!
- Decided to rebuild to not add noise to performance and crash data
- Performance would go down, potentially masking real issues
- Crash signatures could change due to inlining, which might have caused us to miss real issues
- Working on ways to catch this in the future (RelEng as well as RelMan)
- Thanks to RelEng and QA!
- Plan for the (not urgent) go-to-build to happen on Tuesday, as previously agreed upon
Specific concerns / topics of discussion
- Backing out tab animations
- Breaks a fair amount of add-ons (some feedback we've gotten from developers is it is too much)
- There are edge cases engineering may not be happy with
- "Breaks" drag tab to bookmark bar, which we think is < 1% use case (but has vocal supporters and still works when you hold down a key before dragging)
- bug 692759 - Async plugin panting off for QuickTime?
- Have some complaints from Sling media
- Probably a bigger issue, might need to move to a whitelist
Stability
- bug 691271 - RoboForm causing startup crashes
- We need to see if we can get them off binary components (not sure if that would make a difference though)
Meeting Meta
- As previously discussed, these meetings will change soon
- The plan is for the Monday Beta meeting to be combined with the Aurora meeting on Tuesday/Thursday
- Christian and Alex are working on some tools and docs
- Plan for the new process cutover to be next week if no one has an issue with it
- We'll make this explicitly clear, don't worry
