Topics for This Week

Friends of the Mobile Team

Give a shoutout/thanks to people for helping fix and test bugs. Make sure friends also get awarded a badge.

  • Michael Boon is working on bug 791475 - Android updater notification should provide more information like progress
  • Capella fixed bug 913756 - Text Selection Handles displayed from position in previously navigated screen and bug 912523 - Give bookmark thumbnails a context menu header
  • Augustin Trancart fixed bug 711959 which makes fling animations in Fennec stop spawning new threads, and should also reduce occasional glitching. This was a tricky bug to get right (and it took a while to do) but Augustin did a great job!

Stand ups

Suggested format:

  • What did you do last week?
  • What are working on this week?
  • Anything blocking you?

Please keep your update to under 2 minutes!

    • Landed bug 911510 to make the gamepad dead zone on Fennec preffable

  • Want to call out: we are making changes for B2G that might be affecting Fennec inadvertently. If you see breakage relating to panning/zooming, or positioning of fixed-position elements, please let me know.

Chris Kitching

  • Favicon madness

While trying to solve bug 895423, ended up revamping Favicon caching system to avoid horrible workaround. There was some collateral damage: (Mostly awaiting review)

    • bug 914027 - Stop the Favicon cache from trying to decode things it can't decode.
    • bug 748100 - Add support for decoding ICO Favicons.
    • bug 914296 - Add more intelligent Favicon caching. (No more wasteful resizing)
    • bug 888326 - Clean up Favicon caching in preparation for above.
    • bug 753356 - Solve a strictMode violation in Favicon load.
    • bug 782823 - Stop about: pages from causing an exception for Favicon load.
    • bug 813810 - Don't pixelate large Favicons (Were being downscaled and then upscaled lossily)
    • bug 759501 - Load Favicons earlier (Covered by patch to another bug)
    • bug 855911 - Fix rendering issue that was speckle-ifying the NVidia favicon.
    • bug 834536 - Key the Favicon cache with favicon URLs, not page URLs - should get many more cache hits.
    • bug 887492 - Refactor Favicon API.
    • bug 758458 - Covered by above.

    • Filed:
    • bug 914058 - Could behave better when decoding ICO - select best instead of getting largest and downscaling.
    • bug 914950 - Got a bit carried away and added support for an icon format nobody ever uses.
  • Proguard madness
    • bug 794981 - First part of generator landed. A stop closer to Proguard!
    • bug 914760 - Made the above irritate rnewman less.
