Experiments

Thunderbird Conversations

[protz]

Finished working on Gloda patches, I have a series of 6 patches that should considerably boost gloda performance. Next: improve about:telemetry so that people can use try builds to measure how much that makes the situation better for them. Ideally, testers would use Conversations to make sure Gloda is put under as much stress as possible.

About to start working on layout, and also writing mozmill tests for Thunderbird Conversations (just realized that 12000+ lines of code with no tests is on the verge of being an untenable situation).

Also, improved Thunderbird Conversations as usual by fixing bugs and implementing a few UI-related fixes suggested by Bryan. Will try to work with Andy to do a visual refresh of the UI.

Schedule and Progress

Thunderbird 3.1.x

• Bug Lists: 3.1
