Schedule

  • Firefox 35 has shipped!
  • Next merge: 2015-02-23

Topics for This Week

Firefox 35
Shipped a jam-packed release: Search activity & widget, Share overlay, Sync Tabs homepanel, Better error pages (Wifi and Search), Stumbler (perms bump), System DM integration (perms bump), Better network switching and lots of other stuff!
Passwords
The group driving the Password project has been meeting weekly, and has also started triaging bugs. Q1 goals include: Telemetry/Metrics; Changes to save/fill heuristics; and UX changes for saving, filling (including fallback) and password manager.
Task Continuity
The group working on Reader/Reading List have started meeting weekly and planning Q1 goals. Reader view for Android, iOS and Desktop seems to be moving ahead. UX is working on designs for Reading List on Desktop. The Reading Service is also moving ahead and work should be starting soon on client-side integration. The “Send Tabs to Devices” project has not been explicitly addressed yet, but should be soon. Work has been accumulating on that project, but it needs a bit of management/process.
