Experiments

Thunderbird Conversations

• Busy working on trunk, fixing bugs that enhance the behavior of Thunderbird Conversations.
• Hit bugs in the JS engine, had to reproduce, file backtrace, etc.
• I strongly advise against running conversations + trunk. Use miramar instead!
• Two blockers left before 1.0b1 release.

Schedule and Progress

Miramar

• See this post for the plans for releasing Miramar
• Thank you to all those who have helped progress the blockers this week. We're now down to about 6 blockers remaining overall for 3.3.
• String Freeze and branching of comm-miramar: today
  • Just 2 or 3 more string related patches to land.
• Next date: 17th May
  • mozilla-aurora merges to mozilla-beta
  • We'll be separating mozilla-miramar from its mirroring of mozilla-aurora
  • We'll be creating separate l10n/mozilla-miramar repositories for l10n based on their work so far.
• First beta should happen when we can fit it in after 17th May.
