SeaMonkey Meeting Details
Agenda
- Who’s taking minutes? -> Ratty
Action Items
(who needs to do what that hasn’t been recorded in a bug) We should assign people to the open items.
NEW
OPEN
CLOSED
K.I.V.
- Get permission from Google to use their geolocation JSON service [KaiRo]. We can still only wait on the Google front right now. Didn’t hear anything about open Geolocation service yet. No easy solution in sight.
SeaMonkey 2.0.7, SeaMonkey 2.0.8
- Both shipped in the last two weeks, 2.0.8 was an “oilspill” update to 2.0.7 to fix a startup crash.
- Synchronized with Firefox 3.5.12 and 3.5.13.
- Crash stats for 2.0.8 looks really good in comparison to 2.0.7, we should have fixed this correctly.
SeaMonkey 2.0.9
open blockers (0)
blocker requests (0)
fixed (10)
- Based on Gecko 1.9.1.14 and in sync with Firefox 3.5.14, target date TBD, see Releases.
SeaMonkey 2.1 Beta 1
open blockers (3)
blocker requests (3)
targeted (2)
fixed (63)
- Targeted L10n freeze for 30th September and code freeze for 5th October. This roughly matches Gecko 2.0 RC1. After that, we’ll see where Gecko is and where we are and if it really looks good for the final stretch to 2.1.
- Our main problem for a beta1 freeze is probably to get a Gecko version not broken for us. We can freeze our side on a broken tree if we want, but we’ll only start builds from known-good revisions after the freeze.
- Given that Alpha3 has been out for a while, we should give testers another milestone soon as there have been a few more changes since then, including the JägerMonkey landing, that we should deliver to people. Also, this will be the first milestone with L10n, and localizers can use some more testing before final as well.
- We will do a second Beta that will be the actual feature freeze given that Firefox probably won’t go RC1 in the next two weeks.
- KaiRo filed bug 598301 to get the necessary flags in to bugzilla.
(Further 2.1 scheduling:)
- Please help updating the New 2.1 Features page as we go.
- Plans for 2.1: 6-8 weeks per milestone, b1 in early October; followed by b2 (feature freeze) probably in late October; and a final to be decided later.
- This seems to match recently presented Firefox 4 plans relatively well – they’re in beta now,
RC1 is planned for October and Final somewhere “soon” after.
- It would be good to get OOPP (Out Of Process Plugins) for SM2.1 (bug 545716) but we need some way to build libxul (bug 394502) to be able to build OOPP. LDAP work has to be done for that to be possible, the rest should at least build with libxul right now.
Feature List, Planning
Bug statistics for last two (full) weeks: 66 new, 40 fixed, 14 triaged.
- Fix rate is good, triage continues to be weak. Should do more there.
- Good further triage targets could come out of looking at the component bug counts, pick yours!
Major wanted/needed features:
2.1
Needing help, Unowned, Stalled
- bug 460953 kill-rdf port.
- bug 436794 Enable Mac OS X system address book per default and add UI.
- SM UI needed, unowned, helpwanted.
- bug 449728 Drag tabs between windows.
- bug 477845 Build a standalone (Gecko 2.0) Composer. [kaze]
- kaze is currently job hunting so doesn’t have much time to spend on this.
- bug 477840 Backport KompoZer to Composer (Depends on bug 477845).
- kaze has done a ton of work there. We still need to work out some organizational issues. At the moment there is no active interest from MoMo for bringing standalone composer into comm-central. That’s something we (KaiRo and kaze) will have to negotiate with the Thunderbird team (dmose).
- bug 523274 Complete new default theme icon set.
- bug 526210 Update the icon set for the SeaMonkey Modern Theme.
- Some proposed icons got posted, we should take a look how to get that contribution into the product.
- The rest is unowned so far.
- bug 507841 Port Bug 422814 – Make account configuration quick, easy, and more secure (autoconfig, Quick Account Setup).
- bug 573391 Detect outdated plugins and notify users.
- bug 573538 No options for Safe-Mode.
Active
- bug 533908 SeaMonkey Mail: tabs not restored [misak]
- bug 569341 Data Manager [KaiRo]
- KaiRo sr=Neil is there, working on IanN review now. The add-on version up on AMO is 1.0.2, including fixes for all of Neil’s review comments.
- bug 410613 OpenSearch [KaiRo]
- Patch is up for review, needs a bit more work to address comments from Mnyromyr, but seems to work fine as a first step.
- bug 570004 Popup/”doorhanger” notifications [unowned]
- Neil decided to rewrite how doorhangers work in bug 595810, which will make all waiting-for-review patches incompatible with both our target and existing Firefox implementations, so KaiRo dropped work on this.
- Status of overall work, including anything of it making 2.1 is unknown right now.
- bug 467867 [META] Implement Firefox TabBrowser API in Seamonkey [misak]
- bug 566138 Better integration with Windows 7 taskbar
- bug 581526 Add SeaMonkey support for the Windows 7 jump list [mcsmurf]
- ToDo: Split up the patch again as it currently contains two separate features, otherwise the review will take ages. Mcsmurf will start on this on Friday this week.
- bug 576970 Port Sync UI to SeaMonkey trunk [InvisibleSmiley]
- ToDo: Port the change from statusbar to customizable toolbar button and one more l10n change, then create new patches; additionally react to Neil’s prefs review comments.
We also should take a look at the other items on 2.1-wanted
Also the nominations need triaging.
- We will need to take a close look at Lightning, which is mainly targeting Thunderbird.
- Lightning 1.0 beta 1 is for SM2.0 and TB3.0, 1.0 beta 2 is for TB3.1 (Gecko 1.9.2), 1.0 beta 2 will probably be Gecko 2.0-based.
SeaMonkey Developer Meeting
See wiki page: SeaMonkey Developer Meeting
- Happening on October 23/24.
- Invitations have been sent out.
- Hotel has been decided on, more details on the wiki.
- Proposals for sessions are very much wanted.
- How many sessions will we do at all and how long should one session be?
- It might be a good idea to go over a proposed session plan on the last IRC meeting before the dev meeting. There happens to be one scheduled on Tuesday the same week.
Roundtable – Personal Status Updates
Status Updates from developers – what are you working on, what’s the progress, any other comments? (feel free to add yourself to the list if your name is missing and you have interesting status).

- Investigating
- bug 521159 Detect outdated plugins and offer upgrade path -> Can work on it from Saturday 25. on, not sure what to do about doorhanger notifications.
