GFX (milan)
- Async pan-zoom is on by default for apps in Firefox OS 1.3 (28 train), focusing on the remaining issues
- Landed last minute (large) feature for Firefox OS 1.3 - hardware composer fence support
- OMTC on the Mac, on by default, shipping, bug closed

- Continuing the work on removing deprecated textures
- Continuing the Moz2D/Azure conversion
Identity (jedp)
Layout (jet/dbaron)
Media (mreavy)
<Read Only>
- dmose and florian are starting to experiment with screen-sharing UI concepts for WebRTC in bug 923228. Note: security aspects still need to be hammered out, and also standardization work is still needed and being discussed in public-webrtc (w3.org list)
- The IETF rtcweb (WebRTC) working group held a straw poll over video codec selection. We will post the results and next steps here after they are published by the working group chairs.
- Working to enable mochitests on b2g-emulator, which is blocked on getting the virtual data connection up (bug 950317 - schien may be close to resolving it). This is critical to keeping the audio PeerConnection feature on in 1.3, and we'd appreciate anyone pinged for help on it to make it a priority.
Necko (dougt/jduell)
Performance (vladan)
Seceng (mmc)
Shumway (mbx)
WebAPI (overholt)
No update.
Quality Programs
(An opportunity to hear about status with the various quality programs that do not have a formal team structure.)
CritSmash (dbolter)
MemShrink (njn)
- Till Schneidereit implemented JS function relazification, which means that bytecode for JS functions that haven't been executed many times can be discarded. This saves about 2 MB of memory after loading a gmail tab.
- There was a bad memory reporting bug which caused some reporters' paths to be incorrect, leading to erroneous measurements in about:memory. This has been fixed and backported to Aurora and Beta. Happily, it didn't reach a release or any B2G repos.
- Jan-Ivar Bruaroey fixed a longstanding leak (ghost window) that occurred on sites using WebRTC.
OrangeFactor (ryanvm)
Stability (kairo/bsmedberg)
Roundtable
