- mconley
- Spent a few hours going through my review queue this past weekend
- Queue is shrinking, but still needs attention. I’ll get there soon.
- Ensemble
- Can save and update contacts very nicely with syntax like this: http://www.pastebin.mozilla.org/2116543
- Working on asynchronously retrieving all contacts with Promises, returning a Backbone Collection.
- Considering altering the roadmap so that we target read-only capability for imported contacts for TB 24.s
- Focusing on that will reduce focus on LDAP/Facebook/etc connectors.
- Does anyone from the community want to help out with those?
- Ludo says “+1”.
- bwinton
- Also spent a few hours going through my review queue this past weekend.
- Queue is also shrinking, but still needs attention. 🙂

- Irving
- Occasional reviews
- Looking at bug 701533; appears to be symptom of a general problem with front end dropping all references to an IMAP socket without closing it; when NSS times out and closes the socket, references get released on the wrong thread.
- Axel
- Have asked AMO Admins to implement Tb Addons Re-Categorization; https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=835063 <=> https://etherpad.mozilla.org/tb-amo-category-improvements
Question Time
- Can anyone steal reviews for any module, or does it need to be a peer?
- You have to use your best judgement. If it’s a trivial fix, or fixing something you feel you understand, then go for it. In Florian’s case, he should probably just take it. 😉
