Previous Actions

  • ashughes: Respond to Christian's email and make a decision for QA DONE
    • QA will attempt to sign off on Friday
  • joduinn to check with IT about capacity/load in PHX/v.a.m.o. DONE
    • IT said 10% is fine, and now they have said 100% is fine
  • bug 713964 filed to track unthrottling to 10%, if IT are ok with this. DONE
    • Auto updates are enabled @ 10%

Firefox 9

  • The Yahoo messenger bug bug 713014 may be due to bug 696020
  • QA found a possible gelocation regression when near a place with tons of access points (bug 713991)

Add-ons

Aurora

  • Do we need to do the compat bump on AMO now that we have compatible by default?
    • We will continue doing the compatibility bumps. The only difference is that we won't be doing positive bumps (telling devs the add-on passed and increasing the maxVersion on AMO), only negative bumps (telling devs the add-on didn't pass compatibility checks).
    • The negative bump logs will also serve as a source of incompatibility data

Beta

  • bug 711275 Make sure appVersion changes with every Firefox 10 beta - will ensure that the add-ons default to compatible path will be hit on each beta update
    • We had to not do this because Fx wouldn't install over previous Fx10 betas. It sees 10.0 (previous appVersion) as > 10.0b2 (new/altered app version)
    • We decided to go back to normal for b2, which means the default compatible path isn't hit for b2
    • Investigating bumping it to 11.0 for future betas to work around the issue
    • SM folks are aware
  • Have we seen any compatible by default add-on issues? How would issues show up? Have we blocked any add-ons yet?
    • Is QA running automated tests with the top 500 add-ons (and top 50 installed permutations?)
    • QA lead looks to be Virgil Dicu (form the feature page)

Stability

  • Need to get a fix for bug 711900
    • Worried that it is stumping some heavy hitters (bz, gavin, etc)

Roundtable

Aurora
