Software Update "Feature Complete" Task List

Darin Fisher

Mac Updater UI (spawn callback, quit app loop) [complete]
Win32 registry "healing" after update (necessary when we change product name or bump version from 1.0+ to 1.1)
Make restarter work properly (have patch; need to test)
Tune Downloader (this may involve giving AUS a way to control bandwidth)

major memory leak on balsa
update history list UI
Finish notification page (incompatible extensions)
Edge case UI - transfer failure, etc.
Administration locking
Fix downloading page to show secs remaining, update within first few seconds
Fix pause/resume UI updating
user accepts license once then download begins, app quits, user must accept license again on next check
update service must clean out failed or applied updates!
~~ensure randomness of update checking / timer firing~~
~~update window should be dependent~~

ETA - ~5 working days

use this update URL in about:config: test URL
package update and integrate build systems with AUS
1. ensure Firefox Windows, Linux, Mac systems are notifying AUS as expected
  - ~~Fx-Windows~~... Windows sample
  - ~~Fx-Linux~~... Linux sample
  - Fx-Mac (in progress)... Mac sample
2. verify Firefox trunk client update works end-to-end with above app.update.url URLs
3. tackle Thunderbird build systems
track build config changes by others here fixing blockers and ensure build systems mirror changes
ensure mirrors treat .mar as binary file (publish as application/octet-stream)
investigate unset TARGET_XPCOM_ABI on atlantia
1. Is this a general issue with Mac OS X PowerPC? Hopefully not.
