Major Topics for This Week

Aurora uplift

We started the normal process of requesting approval for patches we’d like to see uplifted from m-c to m-a. This will not be the “any and all patches” process we were using previously. We have crash fixes and blockers that will likely move to Aurora.

Stand ups

Suggested format:

  • What did you do last week?
  • What are working on this week?
  • Anything blocking you?

Please keep your update to under 2 minutes!

  • Working on a Tiled layer to work around several performance problems.

Round Table

QA

  • What is this work Jim is doing with Win 8 Metro? (See recent bugmail)
  • FF12 b2 testing this week
  • Triaging as usual, including Sync android bugs in Mozilla Services::Android Sync
  • Nightly testing, preparing for Aurora uplift
  • Started device and website compatibility testing against nightlies

SUMO

  • Last week: Getting started with mobile article updated (all major mobile tasks on native), telemetry article for nightly and aurora); Updated support home page and topic pages for mobile: https://support.allizom.org/en-US/mobile (based on new usability report from Neilsen)
  • This week: New privacy & security article, update screens for all other articles
  • Next week: SUMO work week, will be offsite next Wednesday

Project Management

  • Targeting April 16th (or earlier) as “zero” bug day
  • Does it sound sane to shoot for May 14 (4 weeks later) as “zero” bug day for release?
  • When I know the above is something we all agree on, I can roll that into metrics so we have a better idea of where we stand
  • We have been at 53 beta blocking bugs for a couple of days but overall trending is fairly healthy
