One reason for this is that I&#8217;ve had 8 Exams in the last three weeks, all of which needed quite an amount of preparation. I haven&#8217;t gotten grades for all of them yet, but those I received so far were pretty good.<\/p>\n<p>Now that all of this is through, I have a lot more time for Calendar. I will be enjoying semester vacation until April, which means I can catch up on all the calendar work I have missed.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;d like to give you a short overview of what my next steps are, so you know what to expect.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><b>Planning for 1.0 final<\/b>. We need to firm our goals for Lightning 1.0 final. I&#8217;m going to define some toplevel goals I think would be good for the final and go through bugzilla to identify the most important bugs to fit those goals. Afterwards, I will discuss these goals with the Calendar Team more closely.<\/li>\n<li><b>Reviews<\/b>. My review queue has filled up and is now at <a href=\"https:\/\/bugzilla.mozilla.org\/request.cgi?action=queue&amp;requester=&amp;product=&amp;type=all&amp;requestee=philipp%40bugzilla.kewis.ch&amp;component=&amp;group=type\">35 requests<\/a>. I have already tagged each patch with its length and will now be taking care of these one by one. I can&#8217;t dump in all patches at once so it might take a while until they are all in the tree, but I&#8217;ll be pushing more than one a day if the patches come from different areas and the reviews are done.<\/li>\n<li><b>Improve Localization Infrastructure<\/b>. This step is long overdue, we wanted to have this working before 1.0b1 already. It would be a great advantage for Localizers if they could see how their changes affect Lightning builds. To make this happen, I need to work on the buildbot code so it builds localized Lightning packages automatically for the nightly builds.<\/li>\n<li><b>Patches<\/b>. I do have a few patches in the works that need more elaborate testing and also some coding, I would like to complete these soon, as long as they make sense for the next version.<\/li>\n<li><b>Planning for 1.0b2<\/b>. Depending on what the outcome of the 1.0 final planning is (i.e if we think the next version should still be a beta), we will also spend some time planning for 1.0b2. This includes top level goals and also some driving work to get the blocking list into shape.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This should keep me busy for a while, I&#8217;ll post again when I have new goals to share. Let me know what you think!<\/p>\n<p>Philipp<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you may have noticed, not much has happened since the release of Lightning 1.0 beta 1.
