Notices / Schedule
Firefox 3.6.10 and Firefox 3.5.13
- Went out last Wednesday
- Looks to have fixed the startup crash (bug 594699, graph)
- Thanks to mrbkap for jumping on the issue quickly
Firefox 3.6.11 and Firefox 3.5.14
- Schedules are posted
- Let me know if anyone sees any issues, happy to change the schedule for good reasons
- Code freeze is a week from today (Tuesday 2010-09-28 @ 11:59 pm PDT)
- Nag emails will start shortly
- Final ship is scheduled for Thursday, 2010-10-14
- Still working through all approval and blocking requests
Blocker Report
Firefox 4 Beta
- a handy list of triage queries is available for all!
- Beta 7: 51 blockers
- Beta: 410 blockers
- Final: 348 blockers
- TOTAL: 758 blockers
- nominations: 281 nominations
Firefox 3.6.11
Firefox 3.5.14
Firefox Mobile 2.0
Firefox Development
(from our goals):
- [ON TRACK] Feature complete Firefox 4
- [DONE] Switch to Tab
- [DONE] App Tabs - Scope for 4.0 reduced (non-global), near feature complete.
- [DONE] Extension Manager - Bug list is converging, still a lot of work to do.
- [DONE] Web Console
- [ON TRACK] Notification UI - Geo and EM notifications done, http auth next.
- [ON TRACK] New Theme - Windows and Mac good, Linux catching up now
- [DONE]
TabCandyPanorama - [AT RISK] Silent updates on Windows
- [DROPPED] Inspector
- [DROPPED] Account Manager - WIP patches posted, but we can't contain the review load and code risk.
- [AT RISK] Dirty profile startup within 20% of clean profile startup (modulo extensions, plugins; on windows)
- Current status: Lots of data has been collected and analyzed, but no solid conclusions have shaken out.
- Details page
- Shawn has an updated blog post. Read it for more info.
- Bugs on file that help:
Excessive cookie i/o bug bug 572223(fixed)- Session Restore negatively impacts startup time based on the number of tabs loaded bug 582005
Suboptimal SQLite page size bug 416330(fixed)- Provide a global VACUUM component bug 541373
Platform
(there is a team-by-team goals breakdown, as well)
- [DONE] Javascript performance near or even with Chrome 5 on their benchmarks (within 20% on SS, 30% on V8), with substantial wins on our benchmarks. (Windows, in-browser.)
- [DONE] Hardware acceleration of video and other HTML and SVG content, as well as user interface, on by default for compatible hardware on all Tier-1 desktop and mobile platforms.
- [DONE] Fully support the WebGL 1.0 spec, with support turned on by default in a Firefox 4 beta on platforms that support OpenGL or OpenGL ES.
- [MISSED] security: zero reproducible high/crit > 30 days
- [DONE] Support multi-process Fennec.
- [DONE] Support Jetpacks running in separate processes and never blocking the Fennec UI. NOTE: jetpack team hasn't actually integrated this code yet, but it works in small test environments.
GFX
- Only one bug - bug 596784 - blocks us from turning on OpenGL accelerated compositing on Mac.
- OpenGL compositing on mac is ready for general testing, as long as you don't mind slow scrolling; set the pref
layers.accelerate-all
to true and restart. - Note: Personas don't paint in the titlebar with OpenGL. It's understood, but a bit of work to fix.
