Quality Programs

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

MemShrink (njn)

  • Timothy Nikkel fixed bug 847223, which means we no longer decode all images in a page when its first loaded. This can make an enormous difference on image-heavy pages — we have one example where peak RSS dropped from 2,400 MB to 280 MB. On that same page the loading lag dropped from 5 seconds to 1 second. Assuming no problems are found, the constitutes the completion of the #1 item (“Better Foreground Tab Image Handling”) on the MemShrink big ticket items list! Generational GC will be the new #1.
  • I am in the process of cleaning up the memory reporter infrastructure. One major change that just landed is that nsIMemoryReporter was removed, and nsIMemoryMultiReporter was renamed as nsIMemoryReporter. It’s possible that this might break functionality in some add-ons.

OrangeFactor (ryanvm)

  • Past week’s OrangeFactor: 4.69 (Previous Week: 3.41).
  • Shout out to Victor Porof of the devtools team for landing some major cleanups to the debugger test suite in bug 876277.
  • *30* intermittent failures fixed in the last week – List – Thanks!.

Stability (kairo/bsmedberg)

  • Overall numbers look good for releases and uplifts.
  • Nightly is a mess, but the bugs are all filed and appear to have owners.

Roundtable

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

  • Is Haida targeted at desktop platforms (or Android)? The page seems be to all oriented to B2G. Whe will be the change; how well will this match with OS UIs and across all platforms?
    • B2G only
  • What changes should we expect for about:home (lmandel)
    • Focus on top sites more than bookmarks

<Read only beyond this point>

Chris Kitching

  • Favicon madness

While trying to solve bug 895423, ended up revamping Favicon caching system to avoid horrible workaround. There was some collateral damage: (Mostly awaiting review)

    • bug 914027 – Stop the Favicon cache from trying to decode things it can’t decode.
    • bug 748100 – Add support for decoding ICO Favicons.
    • bug 914296 – Add more intelligent Favicon caching. (No more wasteful resizing)
    • bug 888326 – Clean up Favicon caching in preparation for above.
    • bug 753356 – Solve a strictMode violation in Favicon load.
    • bug 782823 – Stop about: pages from causing an exception for Favicon load.
    • bug 813810 – Don’t pixelate large Favicons (Were being downscaled and then upscaled lossily)
    • bug 759501 – Load Favicons earlier (Covered by patch to another bug)
    • bug 855911 – Fix rendering issue that was speckle-ifying the NVidia favicon.
    • bug 834536 – Key the Favicon cache with favicon URLs, not page URLs – should get many more cache hits.
    • bug 887492 – Refactor Favicon API.
    • bug 758458 – Covered by above.

Coolness:

Schedule & Progress onUpcoming Releases

Firefox Desktop

Current Releases

  • Certificate issue on AUS now resolved (rel-drivers thread from earlier this week)
    • Certificate Issue Post-Mortem 8AM PT on Thursday

Beta (24)

Aurora (25)

  • Major RTC audio latency improvements uplifted to Aurora (bug 884365)

Nightly (26)

  • Non-Flash plugins are now click-to-play by default (bug 899080)

Firefox Metro

Iteration #14 Performance

  • Team completed 43 story points across 10 features which resulted in a decreased average team velocity of 57 story points per iteration.
  • Average team velocity rate decreased 10% from the previous iteration.

Metro Preview Release

  • The Metro Preview Release (public name not finalized) is the en-US, and a robust batch of early locales (TBD), preview planned to be available on the Aurora channel during the Aurora 26 cycle.
  • The goal of the Metro Preview Release is to gather feedback and defects from the larger Aurora community.
  • Whether or not the Metro Preview Release will graduate from Aurora to Beta and Release channels is still to be determined. At a minimum, it should significantly increase the number of testers and feedback.

Metro V1 Public Release

  • At the conclusion of Iteration #14, given the historical velocity performance values of 30,32,33,43,46,50,51,63,68,74,75,75,77,80, the Metro Team has a median velocity of 57 and there is a 90% likelihood that the actual velocity will fall between 43 and 75.
  • With a velocity performance of 57 the Metro Team can expect to complete between 129 and 225 more units of work with a median value of 171.
  • With a forecasted total of 171 points remaining development would be completed in 3 iterations on October 28, 2013 – Development Iteration #17.
  • The decrease in average team velocity over the two previous iterations positions Metro for a Firefox 27 release on January 21, 2014.

Firefox Mobile

Market Insights from the Product Marketing Strategy Team

Desktop / Platform

  • New Zealand passed legislation declaring that pure software uncoupled from some new dedicated hardware is not an invention and hence software patents cannot be granted, [1] setting a precedent for other countries to ban or creatively disallow software patents. [2] The underlying principle is that software patents are counter-productive, often used obstructively and get in the way of innovation.[3]

Apple

  • iPhone 5S uses a 64-bit ARM chip of Apple’s own design, the A7, reflecting not only processor requirements for biometric authentication, but also a potential for Intel-free long-term device and operating system strategy which Apple termed as “Forward-Thinking” and “Desktop Class”. [4] Also included is the “motion co-processor,” the M7 chip, to continuously monitor the phone’s accelerometer, gyroscope and compass, with APIs exposed to developers reflecting enablement of new surveillance scenarios across devices. [5]
  • Apple announced that anyone who buys a new iPhone or iPad will get iWork for free, potentially challenging Microsoft Office head-on and building ahead of Google Drive. [6]

Google

  • Google announced Chrome Apps, a rename from Packaged Apps it announced in May, built using web technologies and with Chrome-specific code, which means that means they won’t be able to run on other web browsers. [7] These can work offline, and sync across devices and operating systems, access GPU, storage, camera, ports, and Bluetooth connection. Chrome Apps are available through Chrome on Windows or Chrome OS; Chrome update for Mac comes in 6 weeks.
  • Google Loses Appeal in Street View Snooping Case. [8] A federal appeals court ruling based on wiretap laws said Google wrongly collected people’s personal correspondence and online activities through their Wi-Fi systems as it drove down their streets with car cameras shooting photos for its Street View mapping project.
  • Google expanded the Chromebook lineup, with new Chromebook models from Hewlett-Packard, Acer, Asus and Toshiba. [9] The latest hardware will feature Intel’s “Haswell” chip which consume less power to improve battery life by more than two times previous generations.

Microsoft

  • Microsoft is planning to launch its Surface 2 and Surface 2 Pro devices at an invitation-only event in New York on September 23. [10]
  • Microsoft is making the ‘gold’ Windows 8.1 and Windows Server 2012 R2 bits available to developers and volume licensees ahead of the October 18 general-availability date, along with near-final version of Visual Studio 2013. [11] The Windows 8.1 Enterprise SKU will be available to MSDN/TechNet and volume licensees before the end of September.
  • Microsoft will be rollout out its Dynamics CRM Online Fall ’13 cloud-based CRM service; its Dynamics CRM 2013 on-premises complement; and new CRM apps for Windows 8 and the iPad. [12] The guide [13] outlines the new user interface; the guided processes meant to eliminate the navigational guesswork; the performance and business rule updates; and the coming Yammer, Lync and Skype integration functionality in the release.
  • As part of its “Technology for Good” program, Microsoft donates Office 365 service to all qualifying non-profits. [14]

Intel

  • Intel is now jumping into wearable devices with an extremely low-power chip called Quark. [15], a synthesizable family of embedded devices designed for embedded applications like industrial designs and wearable computing.

Mobile

[Irina is on holiday, just text this week].

  • September brings the beginning of pre-holiday releases in the mobile industry, when all manufacturers start competing for a share of the holiday gift budget.
  • Apple released the iPhone 5S and its lower-end version, the 5C. iPhone 5S – Available in silver, gold and ‘space grey’, iPhone 5s features an A7 chip, a Touch ID fingerprint identity sensor, ultra-fast wireless, an iSight camera with a larger 8MP sensor and iOS 7. iPhone 5C – Available in green, blue, yellow, pink and white, iPhone 5c features an A6 chip, ultra-fast wireless, an 8MP iSight camera and iOS 7.
  • Qualcomm and Samsung both released smartwatches. Branded Toq, Qualcomm’s version is a touch-enabled smartwatch that tethers to Android (now) and iOS (soon) smartphones via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Users can read e-mails and texts and respond to them using pre-programmed responses they’ve entered into the app. Also other simple smartwatch-y things like check the weather and check stock prices are available on the device. The Samsung Galaxy Gear has a single – core 800MHz processor, a 1.9-megapixel camera, a speaker, and two microphones — allowing users to shoot short 720p movies and even conduct phone calls. It pairs with the newest smartphones from Samsung’s Galaxy and Note lines.
  • Samsung released version 3 of its extremely large handset line, the Galaxy Note. Equipped, as usual, with a stylus, the device has a 5.7 inch screen and features the new Samsung Exynos 5 Octa processor.
  • Android version distribution for September puts Gingerbread at 30.7% of the market, Ice Cream Sandwich at 21.7% and Jelly Bean at 45.1%.

Friends of the Firefox team

Give a shoutout/thanks to people for helping fix and test bugs.

Project Updates

Australis

  • TART performance
    • We’re bisecting UX like crazy. It’s a little tricky because there seems to be some noise in the measurements as we go, and we’re a little wary that the total regression is the sum of many small ones…but there is at least one changeset range where there’s been a pretty substantial regression, and we’re peeling into that.
    • MattN has noted that, at least locally, SVG clip-paths are pretty expensive on his XP machine, and removing them saw a 12% performance improvement compared to having the clip-paths. We’re going to pursue Graphics on the possibility of caching clip-paths in bug 914617.
    • Vladan has found a solution to our XP pseudostack problem – one simply needs to copy a more recent version of dbghelp.dll (he tested with DLL version 6.12.2.633) into the firefox directory. Once we’ve confirmed on a few other machines, we’ll update MDN (and possibly pursue getting that DLL put on all of the talos slaves)
  • General
    • We fixed a bunch of P1 bugs and elevated some other bugs to P1. Net bug reduction!
    • We struggled with broken tests/builds for half the week, hence a somewhat shabby list – now fixed though, and full steam ahead!

Downloads API

  • Significant reduction in the Slow SQL queries since landed in Nightly
  • Plan to remove the preference that disables the new code in Firefox for Desktop
  • Active outreach to extension developers this week before the Aurora migration
  • Planned API changes, and final review before the Aurora migration
  • Feedback on known temporary regressions and also on positive additions
  • Tremendous progress this week on 10 of 12 bugs tracking release
    The 2 remaining bugs are the DownloadTaskbar front-end and one minor regression to investigate
  • Conversation with Sam Foster of the Metro Firefox team to evaluate switching to the new API
  • Upcoming firefox-dev post

Thumbnailing

Foreground thumbnailing

  • addressed by patch in bug 906615 (below): bug 809051 – Limit how often we thumbnail the page using the foreground service

Background thumbnailing

  • landed: bug 875986 – BackgroundPageThumbs should be able to capture private thumbnails while private browsing is active
  • landed: bug 909218 – Allow a docShell to have default load flags that will be applied to every request made from it.
  • landed: bug 912763 – Disable background thumbnails on Beta
  • landed: bug 910563 – gracefully handle remote process crashing
  • landed: bug 906713 – Intermittent browser_thumbnails_background.js | Thumb browser should exist immediately after capture.
  • landed: bug 903299 – Modal dialog / prompt failures when running browser_thumbnails_background.js
  • should be fixed by bug 875986‘s landing: bug 899064 – Profiler won’t turn on because it thinks I’m in private browsing mode [due to background thumbnails]
  • new patch for review: bug 906615 – Background thumbnail service shouldn’t overwrite existing thumbnails, or at least foreground thumbnails should be preferred
  • waiting on review: bug 910036 – about:newtab shouldn’t load thumbnails in background when hidden by preloader
  • patch for review: bug 913171 – Intermittent browser_thumbnails_background.js | Captured URL should be currently expected URL

SessionStore

(Steven and I are unfortunately unable to attend the meeting today. Feel free to read this out loud or just read it on your own 🙂

  • SessionStore is affected by a possible data loss due to ChromeWorkers being aborted on shutdown, patches under way to fix this (bug 913899).
  • The recent session cookie refactorings introduced a regression for huge sessions with lots of (nested) history entries, patches waiting for review (bug 912717).
  • Telemetry for TabStateCache landed (bug 896545) and shows that our cache hit rates are great.
  • We’re working on tests for the TabStateCache (bug 911115).
  • Global Value API has been backed out to fix regressions before landing again (bug 899213).
  • With nsIAppStartup.willRestart and .wasRestarted in the making (bug 911146) we will be able to get rid of some more ugly code (bug 914062).
  • Missing tests are the last thing blocking us from landing the first async data collection patches (bug 894595).

Places API asyncification

  • Raymond has posted most of the patches needed for the bookmarks backups improvements. Mak going to review them by the end of the week, then will go through the goal target and file any missing bugs to complete the project.
  • Mano is working towards a solution to a problem with guids and the new async transactions, as well as on a regression fix due to recent related changes. Patches are in the bugs and Mak going to review them.
  • Mak currently working on regression fixes for issues introduced by automatic batches in Places views.

Social API

  • last big feature patches landed
  • pref on blocked by e10s issues
  • looking at austrails
  • spending week tracking down any issues that should be tweaked before uplift
  • next week in SF

Build Changes (gps)

(Build changes of which engineers should be aware.)

<Read Only>

  • Builds in automation (and presumably developer machines by extension) have been getting faster!: http://brasstacks.mozilla.com/gofaster/#/executiontime/build?range=60&include_outliers=0
    • Combination of C++ header dependency elimination and core build system changes.
  • Build tiers have been inverted. Expect some fully concurrent building soon \o/
    • This clearly shows how much C++ compilation dominates build times. Anything you can do to reduce C++ compilation time will make the build faster. This work is largely outside the scope of the core build config group.
  • |mach test| has landed. You can now run test suites by their TBPL abbreviation e.g. |mach test M1|. Not all tests supported. File bugs against Testing :: General to plug gaps.

Upcoming Outages/Upgrades

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

  • treeclosure from last night SCL1 outage as part of rollout DNS change: details in bug 914570. Gap in nagios coverage, so IT setting up nagios alert in bug 914735

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.)

Firefox OS Productivity (doliver)

Last week:

  • The first cut at email notifications has landed! https://bugzil.la/892519
    • These should be pretty functional, so go ahead and give it a shot. Visit your account settings to turn on notifications for existing accounts.
    • New accounts will have the option to turn them on during setup
    • Note: as currently implemented, you may find notifications overly enthusiastic — every new mail will wake up your screen and play a sound. We are working with the systems team this week to see what we can do to add a less exuberant class of notification to use for less urgent cases like this.

This week:

  • Work week – Oslo
    • Objective is to complete all 1.2 blocking features — the remaining pieces of notifications and streaming for attachments (https://bugzil.la/871897)

“Mozilla thinks having “whimsical” micro-copy and animations will help it retain users, but for the most part, I think its idea to allow users to “constantly discover diverse content including apps, collections, articles, reviews, videos and more” in the store could be the winning concept here… Mozilla thinks having ‘whimsical’ micro-copy and animations will help it retain users, but for the most part, I think its idea to allow users to ‘constantly discover diverse content including apps, collections, articles, reviews, videos and more’ in the store could be the winning concept here.” – Frederic Lardinois, TechCrunch

Topics for This Week

UI Test Code

The front-end team started looking into ways to improve the way we write UI (Robocop) tests. Goals include: Providing building blocks to make it easier to write tests, Find ways to improve reliability of tests and update to additional frameworks so test can be split into UI and non-UI parts. See Lucas’ mailing list post for more background and ways to help.
GeckoView Status

Shane Tully and Brad Lassey have been working on patches, and landing a few. We are in a much better place and Finkle has picked up the ball a bit to propose some embedding interfaces and APIs. See the mailing list post for more details. We’d like to get more feedback before committing to the initial embedding plan.

Market Insights from the Product Marketing Strategy Team

Desktop / Platform

Microsoft

  • Nokia is reportedly planning to announce a Windows RT tablet codenamed Sirius [1], providing more context to Microsoft’s acquisition of Nokia along with Nokia’s logistics, supply-chain, distribution and partnerships worldwide [2], as Microsoft prepares to launch Windows 8.1 and potentially Surface 2 and Surface Pro 2 [3].

Google

  • Google appears to be using user agent sniffing to deliver different experiences to different browsers rather than responsive design frameworks. Google also appears to be forcing IE10 to run in IE9 standards mode on the News page and header layout for pages delivered to mobile requires WebKit-specific CSS. [4]

Apple

  • Apple acquired data-compression company from Sweden, AlgoTrim. [5] Algotrim’s products enable decompression and compression for video and image processing in real time. It also provides advanced solutions for images like super resolution and computational imaging.

Facebook

  • While Twitter hashtags help drive exposure on the social network, new data from EdgeRank shows that Facebook hashtags have the opposite effect, providing no extra exposure or no viral reach. [6] EdgeRank’s hypothesis is that the difference arises in how the hastags are used – hashtags are often used in promotional material which does the job of branding, but results in less engagement, less clicks and less Reach.

Mobile

  • Microsoft is buying Nokia’s devices business for 3.79 billion Euros and is licensing its patent portfolio for 10 years for another 1.65 billion Euros. The transaction is expected to complete in Q1 of 2014. Stephen Elop, Nokia’s CEO, will be taking the position of Executive VP of Devices & Services at Microsoft. Nokia still retains the network equipment business and the mapping service HERE. Microsoft will also be licensing HERE for the next 4 years, as well as the device brands Lumia and Asha for current devices. New smartphones cannot use the Nokia brand.
  • A report from Kantar places Windows Phone as a significant contender for the entry – level smartphone market in Europe. The agency studied device purchases for the 3 months leading up to July in the UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain and calculated that 8.2% of sales were on Windows Phone. This is the highest – ever level in those markets. The report also places the platform at 11.6% of sales in Mexico and the first time that the platform took number two in a major market.
  • Google announced 1 billion Android activations and the name of the next version (4.4) to be KitKat. The main driver behind the evolution of the platform, however, are becoming the proprietary Google services that are updated through the Play Store. Ars Tehnica has a feature on them.
  • Google bought WIMM Labs, a smartwatch maker, after a long relationship with the start-up.
  • Local smartphone OEMs are gaining significant market share in Asia – Pacific. Up to 39% of units sold in Q2 2013 were from brands like MyPhone, Cherry Mobile, Xiaomi, Coolpad and K-Touch. While MyPhone and Cherry Mobile are popular in the Philippines, Xiaomi is gaining in the Chinese market alongside Lenovo and Samsung, and Micromax is going for the Indian market. Other brands include Smartfren in Indonesia, Ninetology and S-CSL in Malaysia, Q-Star and Mobiistar in Vietnam and i-Mobile in Thailand.
  • The UK operator Three is dropping international roaming charges for its customers in 7 countries. When traveling to the Republic of Ireland, Australia, Italy, Austria, Hong Kong, Sweden and Denmark, customers will be billed as if they were still in the UK. This is significant in particular for data charges, as international calls and messages (to non – UK numbers) will still be billed as usual.
  • Upcoming news: IFA, Europe’s largest consumer tech show is going on this week in Berlin. Samsung and Sony will be making announcements. And next week Apple will hold a press event.

Product Marketing, Press & Public Reaction

Product Marketing

  • Search Engine Optimization: This project is to help make sure we’re making the most of the vast amounts of natural search traffic that shows up on our doorstep. Good news: we have identified a lot of low-hanging-fruit we can improve. We’re now prioritizing the abundant recs and working with our fab WebProd team to implement these improvements. We’re hopeful this will move the download and traffic needle in the key emerging markets we’re focused on.
  • Consumer Value Proposition Work: We’ve added Russia into the mix and have completed the in-person in depth interviews. Next up: the quantitative section which will tell us, en masse, which Firefox attributes appeal most to users within key target markets.
  • Firefox Desktop Program Review: Supporting Asa on the desktop program review is a new priority for Q3

“Firefox’s developer tools remain the niftiest in browserdom, offering the same code-scrutinizing capabilities as Safari and Chrome, but in a much sleeker, eye-catching package. I especially like its 3D view; the deeper each element on the page is nested, the more it protrudes toward you.” – Nathan Alderman, MacWorld

“In the long run, Web Components will change how developers build their web apps and make it easier to reuse – and share – UI components. With both Mozilla and Google actively backing this development, it’s only a matter of time before these polyfills will only be necessary to support legacy browsers, though it’s not always clear when the main browser vendors plan to fully implement it.” – Frederic Lardinois, TechCrunch

e10s

UX Updates

lco

  • I’m back! I missed you guys 🙂
  • Thailand was *awesome*. Updates soon about what we found.
    • One teaser: Searching for information was the most important use for the browser. People equated a “fast and easy” browser as one that got them to a search box the fastest; Users said that Chrome was the browser of choice because they didn’t have to go to “google.com” to perform a search. On Android, many people used the Google search widget to access the Internet, not the browser.
