Builds

• bug 430200 Linux hourly/nightly builds
  • We have builds going, needs a little cleanup on ftp.

QA

• Big Blockers for Mochitests (unlocks a large number of mochitests)
  • bug 455891 - issues with setting Focus on elements
  • bug 454613 - showModalDialog issue

• Lesser issues, related to plugin support:
  • bug 455956 - plugin style
  • bug 455866 - pluginNotFound event not firing

• started running mochitests on Nokia - working on retooling Heather's script to run directory by directory since we're still hitting resource issues with running the full suite of mochitests on the N810.

• working on getting --enable-tests to work in the build environment (should be fixed by bug 459699)

• initial start on [Test Plan]

Other

• Start working on "unified" panning
  • Single panning layer, not content panning and UI panning mixed together
  • Panning would be removed from deckbrowser
  • Browser (deckbrowser) would always be sized to the extents of the actual web content
  • Panning happens in the UI layer - sidebars, browser and anything else all move together
  • deckbrowser/canvas only needs to paint the current viewport
• Non-canvas based ideas for deckbrowser
  • Canvas method is not without issues
  • How bad is the "just browser" method
  • Should we add panning into the platform (we need it for more the deckbrowser)

Embedding

Initial tasklist. No changes.
