OMG DRAFT!
- New Firefox Theme
- Windows complete (no blocking bugs)
- Beta quality for Mac, Linux
- Feature Work
- This is the quarter where a bunch of our awesome ideas need to very quickly get very solid.
- Self-hosted Home Tab
- App Tabs
- Design/Implement better approach for privacy/security sensitive notifications
- Jetpack Enablement
- As with our feature work, this is the quarter where Jetpack gets real.
- This isn't "a labs project," this is the Firefox SDK.
- All 0.2-targetted JEPs completed, plus page-worker which is post-0.2 but feels very high value
- Integrated Developer Tools
- Beta quality designer-friendly inspector
- Beta quality activity console with jetpack integration (basic logging and debug)
- Performance
- We have some really solid knowledge about Ts and bugs in the queue, but we clearly have problems estimating the amount of ground we can cover in a quarter, too.
- Ts still matters, but we're running into the fact that we don't "believe" clean Ts very much.
- We should refine/rebuild that test to reflect a more plausible startup scenario (e.g. 5 tabs, timer only stops after we: start up, accel-L, type www.locallycachedgoogle.com, load that page)
- Produce a complete startup timeline.
- Identify 5 most expensive modules ("chunks of code"), focus perf work there
- Example: make sessionrestore O(1) within the startup path (!)
Eng-wide Goals we should expect to be heavily involved with:
- Ship Lorentz
- We have work here around making sure the OOPP UI lands safely, but this is really eng-wide, and mostly on bsmedberg right now
- Electrolysis
- Able to build, run Firefox with a separate content process. (Things might break, chrome might not work fully, but the browser should stay standing).
- J-PAKE
- Working with Shaver, Lucas on how to articulate an eng-wide "land security features" goal
