General Priorities
These priorities apply to all team members at all times:
- Security bugs rated sg:moderate or higher.
- Review requests older than one week.
These should be taken care of before any other work is done.
Individual Priorities
Only networking team members should be changing priorities. If you have questions about priorities or anything else on this list please email the relevant person or Josh Aas (networking team manager).

Sooner:
- bug 674148 - De-serialize certificate chain validations. The patch for bug 674147 does this.
- Import NSS 3.13.2 pre-release into mozilla-central
- Help Steve Workman with bug 354493 if needed.
- bug 660749 - PSM doesn't revalidate certificates of resources from the cache.
- bug 640625 - PKCS#12 does not iterate hashing - patch needs to be checked in
- bug 682244 and bug 676829
- bug 590364 and bug 650355 - Stop accepting MD5 as a hash algorithm
Later:
- Import NSS 3.13.2 final release into mozilla-central
- Bug 624514 - PSM accesses pref service off the main thread - have patch, need to test.
- 664542 - hidden
- 508633 - Unresponsive OCSP server should not be treated as revocation
- Test PSM using libpkix vs current cert chain building using SSLLabs and/or EFF SSL Observatory data sets.
- Fix bug 650307 - Certificate chain is verified twice for EV certificates
- Fix bug 481656 - Change cert viewer to validate/build cert chains the same way they are used for trust decisions
- Fix bug 650296 - PSM may report a different certificate error than what was originally encountered
- Any libpkix fixes identified during libpkix testing.
- Fix bug 651246 - Make libpkix-based certificate path building/validation the default in PSM.
- Review rrelyea's patches for bug 470994 (and related bugs) - Complete active distrust in NSS
- TLS compression (Google already wrote patches, but they may require some cleanup and we need to enable the feature in PSM.)
- Patches to NSS needed to support NSS/PSM startup time improvements (bug 648407, bug 648435, bug 648431)
- PSM startup time improvements (bug 648407, bug 648435, bug 648431)
- Drive decision on acceptable cert validation staleness (no bug, related to bug 643916, will try to pass off to Gervase)
- Implement subscription-based blocklisting of certs via update ping (Bug 647868, bug 643982) - Needs libpkix
- Remove support for weak crypto (https://www.wsjsafehouse.com/)
- OCSP stapling
Honza Bambas
Reviews (by priority) Currently no need to track here.
- bug 495337 Make sessionStorage use principals instead of string domains
- bug 720778 Important threads should have a name for better debugability (took by Brian?)
- Compare Firefox with other browsers using Wireshark on some common or known not-well performing pages
- bug 725587 Firefox jumps randomly from IPv6 to IPv4 and vice versa in dual-stack environment
- bug 705755 Reintroduce handling of SSL short write after SSL thread removal
- update based on review comments
- bug 715837 Crash @ mozilla::net::HttpChannelParent::RecvMarkOfflineCacheEntryAsForeign
- bug 536324 Change nsIChannel to support 64-bit content-length
- bug 451081 Add flag to protocol handler to distinguish that trust domain is the whole spec (finish this!)
- bug 692817 Create test for it
- bug 621446 Crash [@ mozilla::net::HttpChannelParent::RecvRedirect2Verify ]
- waiting for results of the debugging patch
- the investigation patch may need to update to directly throw from RecvRedirect2Verify, have to double check on this
Few bugs I released but would like to work on them eventually if not finished until then by someone else.
Nick Hurley
- Cache work
- Get Node 0.7.0 onto build servers for SPDY testing
- Work w/Catlee on making NeckoNet part of our build-time tests
- Bugs
Patrick McManus
- SPDY: standardization issues, v3 implementation, land ping feature, followup on test infra
- Get HTTP pipelining patches into the tree.. needs measurements.. reviews complete. pending nightly==14 to not step on spdy
- tcp preconnect overlap with cache access (needs bug #). drive leftover syn-retry as prototype through ssl, overlap with cache, provide hint idl, maybe implement hint for search
- review telemetry results for spdy and dns and see if there is anything there to proceed on
- lame-network project - improving networking in less than ideal networking conditions
