Schedule
Major Topics for This Week
- Beta Status
- We are not releasing a beta this week. We made the decision that rendering performance (panning and checkerboarding) was not good enough for a beta release. Patrick and BenWa started work on using GL-layers in Gecko/Android to improve rendering performance. Work has also started on off-main thread compositing (OMTC) to make panning more responsive. Erin and Alex are working on schedule impact and planning.
- We don't know if this means Fx11 is not the release for Native. We are working to answer that today or tomorrow.
- Work continues to drive down crashes, improve stability and improve UI responsiveness.
- GL-Layers and OMTC
- Work to convert mobile to use GL backed layers is happening at breakneck speed. We should have a demo of the GL-layers work at today's Mobile Demo meeting.
- We will use the Maple branch to continue the GL work
- Builds are available and Fennec is demoable.
- Working to get estimates on timelines and collateral breakage
- ARMv6 Status
- Ted and Mike have got armv6 starting up. See Ted's tweet.
- We need to stamp out any other ARMv6-related crashes
- We need to look at performance characteristics
