Build Changes (gps)

(Build changes of which engineers should be aware.)

Upcoming Outages/Upgrades

(System outages/upgrades and tree closures that impact engineering.)

Key Issues

(Non team specific issues that impact engineering.)

Team Stand-ups

(In <2 mins, what did your team accomplish last week, on what is your team working on this week, and on what, if anything, is your team blocked? No questions during the stand-ups. All questions should be asked during the roundtable.)

Add-on SDK (dtownsend)

• Intermittent test fixes

App Tools (dtownsend)

No update

Firefox OS Productivity (doliver)

<Read Only>

• 1.2 sprint 3 in progress
• Focus of 1.2 work, periodic e-mail sync/notifications, is looking at initial functionality landing near the end of this week. There are still additional user stories to implement involving notifications when the e-mail app is visible as well as grouping logic once the gaia system dependency of updating/revoking notifications lands.
• POP3 support in the e-mail client is being planned for v1.3.
• As always, product/sprint backlog located at https://www.pivotaltracker.com/s/projects/867311

GFX (milan)

<Read Only>

• Relaxed blocklist driver versions on windows and Intel graphics (904266)
• Tiling on B2G (in case this didn't get mentioned under mobile)

Media (mreavy)

• MP3 playback is now supported on Windows XP via DirectShow - file any issues against bug 861693

Quality Programs

(An opportunity to hear about status with the various quality programs that do not have a formal team structure.)

MemShrink (njn)

The stealthy introduction of e10s (via the thumbnails child process) exposed a bug in multi-process memory reporting, which has now been fixed. Nonetheless, the existing way of handling multiple processes is hacky and gross and needs to be improved.

Roundtable

(Comments and questions that arise during the course of the meeting or otherwise do not have a section.)

<Read only beyond this point>

Mailing List Threads

(Threads that are likely to be of interest to engineering from various mailing lists.)

Good Reads

(Links to blog posts, books, videos, etc. that you think will be of interest to others.)
