Sorry for the late update. We had our hands pretty full with some major fixes (preferences rewrite, installer, etc.), so this update is a bit bigger than the last one. With all these fixes going in, we believe that Sunbird 0.3 and Lightning 0.3 will be great releases, which are worth waiting for.

New preferences code

For those of you keeping up with nightly builds of Sunbird, tomorrow’s build will contain a whole new architecture for preferences. Thanks to the hard work of lilmatt, Sunbird is now using the newer preferences code that debuted in Firefox and Thunderbird 1.5. There are still some loose ends to tie up though, so now’s the time when an extra close eye by our community can help. If you notice particular preferences that aren’t working, or other errors in tomorrow’s nightly build, please file a bug in Bugzilla.

Contributed windows nightly build available

As many of you know, we haven’t had windows nightly builds for a few weeks now, due to the need to upgrade the compiler on the solaria tinderbox. However, ssitter has put together a build himself, for those of you wishing to test the patches that have landed recently. While we hope this build should work for the majority of people, it is possible that additional problems could arise. Please use your best judgment about whether a bug is caused by the quirks of this build or a problem in the code before using Bugzilla. Thanks.

The windows build is available here.

Status of Sunbird localization

I want to give a short update to our localization community.

  1. As of now, we have 9 translations available for Sunbird 0.3 alpha2. These can be found on the Sunbird website. If people from other countries want to make their Sunbird translation available, then please announce your finished localization in the mozilla.dev.l10n newsgroup.
  2. Yesterday we made a major breakthrough for Sunbird localizers. Matthew Willis (lilmatt) fixed Bug 267981 and Bug 281935 enabling localization through CVS and also building localized Sunbird builds directly from the Mozilla CVS repository.

    Because of this, all localizers should read the updated Calendar Localization page on the mozilla.org wiki and make themselves familiar with CVS (if you have not already done so). A lot of interesting material can be found on the homepage of the Mozilla Localization Project. If you have any questions please post them to the mozilla.dev.l10n or the mozilla.dev.apps.calendar newsgroup.

Please note, that the source localization is not available for the Sunbird 0.3 alpha2, but only for trunk and branch nightly builds. With the fixes for Sunbird l10n done, we will now focus our efforts on getting source localization (via CVS) done for Lightning. Stay tuned for more updates!

Status update (07 June)

Again our status update is pretty short as we prepare for some major bug fixes and due to further ongoing discussions regarding the Sunbird/Lightning roadmap and Sunbird 0.3 planning. So just the following bugs were fixed since the last status update:

  • Bug 339670: Fix SQL query for non-recurrent events being incorrect when getItems was called for a range of time with different start and end offsets
  • Bug 335594: Makes Sunbird’s release notes url NOT hardcoded
  • Bug 337848: Only use times for Today and Tomorrow in the agenda view
  • Bug 339509: Day view doesn’t always display the correct day
  • Bug 339509: Wrong day selected in views if selected timezone does not match system timezone
  • Bug 315960: Improve performance when switch day/week views
  • Bug 335643: Make tasks in the multiweek and month views show up even if their start date is earlier than the start of the view

Our localization community should be happy that with the fix of Bug 338349 we took another major towards our goal of source localization, which can be tracked in Bug 267981.

Thanks as always to all the testers, hackers, reviewers, etc.
