Contacts Session 15october2014 morning
Action Items:
- mconley: review bug 841603, is it the right thing to do? does it match mailnews?
- review existing Mozilla (and non Mozilla) CardDAv implementations with an eye to see if they are usable in Thunderbird
- once 1 and 2 are done, how do we get CardDav into existing Address Book including existing UI? see if this a "google summer of code"-size project?
Contact Session 16october2014
Compose (jcranmer)
Joshua has some rewrites planned for nsMsgSend. We discussed needs, and agreed to investigate creating the ability in TB 38 to allow existing compose and send code to be replaced by an extension, which would be used as a test ground for the new compose and send implementation.
New Account Types / skinkglue (rkent)
- There was general agreement that implementing the capability provided by SkinkGlue should be a target for TB
- We need to test existing js XPCOM wrappers to see of the complexity of the C++ override in SkingGlue is needed
autoconfig
- We need a dns SRV implementation available, either in core or in the messaging dns web server (see gozer)
- We should be adding calendar and chat (XMPP) information in autolookup
OAuth / Gmail
- There are a number of unresolved issues with OAuth usability, including private key exposure and auto lookup
- GMail now requires multiple steps for new users to access IMAP without using OAuth, which in an unacceptable user experience.
- We need to implement, at least for GMail, OAuth option for TB 38.
Profiler
- The profiler is a great tool for finding performance issues
- the current profiler tip is broken for TB, use an older version. mconley to provide a link.
Chat
- WebRTC: Currently on https://etherpad.mozilla.org/chat-webrtc -- move this over at the end
