Major Topics for This Week

Application

Front-end

  • Work for Fx8
    • Tablet UI
      • Implementation is being tweaked to match latest designs
      • Plan to land soon with a pref to enable/disable
    • Selecting text in web content followup bugs
      • Landed more fixes on fx8
      • Seems like we should move the existing fx8 fixes to fx7 and will be OK.
    • Language picker support for locales on AMO
      • Process of getting XPIs to AMO bug 674253
      • Logistics work is underway to figure out how to handle nightly and aurora impact
    • Basic webapp support
      • Need to "appify" the tab in a similar way to desktop
      • Need to support manifest approach bug 609043
    • Master Password
      • Should be good for landing. Status?
  • Let's make sure we are working on other bugs and minor features too

UX design

  • reviewing current and near-future state of text selection handles (madhava)
  • tablet designs refining, moving to dev (brian)
  • working on
    • start page (ian)
    • "fennecomb" visual design (ian)
  • if you have bugs that need UX-input/feedback/review - please add the ui-wanted keyword (and/or email madhava)

Platform Support

  • Safe Browsing update - (Gian-Carlo)
  • OpenGL Update (CLord)
  • Startup Shrink (stover)

Android

  • NDKr5 deployed
  • Enabled high-quality (bilinear) image scaling on Tegra devices in Nightly (bug 669851). We may want to take this for Aurora (Firefox 7) after getting feedback from Nightly users.
  • Some upcoming work may require updating the Android SDK (bug 672661, bug 675901, bug 664149). Filed bug 676275 to update the build machines.

Performance

Testing

QA

Test Suites

Test Automation

  • DougT secured a tegra and started looking at the libc abort during testing.
  • mochitest chunks 5-8 are turned on for most branches

Release Engineering

Priorities page

  • Tegras - tests are enabled across all applicable branches.
    • Some have no mobile builds or any tests running, so not on those branches.
    • Ateam has a list of more tests that can be enabled once green.
    • Wait times are still good.
    • We have full branch coverage on the tegras; is there anything else to stop us de-prioritizing Maemo? (Also, Ops wants to kill production-mobile-master because it needs to move from ESX to Ganeti.)
    • Priorities page is largely out of our hands at this point -- move to public wiki or tracking bug, any pref? Who should own?
    • Consolidate monday meeting with this meeting?
  • bug 669189 - Market fixed
