Read more about our on-going work here.

GFX (milan)

    • Everyone at work week in Seattle
    • Joining forces with TEF for FTU and accounts manager
  • New UX mocks by rfeeley for native Persona sign-in on Desktop

JS (naveed)

Layout (jet/dbaron)

<Read Only>

Media (mreavy)

<Read Only>

  • Daala - coding party in MV Sept 30th to Oct 3rd -- if interested, contact Maire (mreavy@mozilla.com). We hear there's food!
  • bug 886181 Enabled H.264 support for Linux
  • bug 914479 Added MP3 support for OSX

    • Significant improvement for A/V sync to land soon

Necko (dougt/jduell)

Performance (vladan)

<Read Only>

  • bug 916078: Preventing data loss when shutting down asynchronous services
  • bug 912846: pymake no-op builds should be 3 times faster

Seceng (tanvi)

  • Lots of CSP work:

WebAPI (overholt)

  • janv landed temporary storage bug 785884
  • more to come

Quality Programs

(An opportunity to hear about status with the various quality programs that do not have a formal team structure.)

CritSmash (dbolter)

MemShrink (njn)

  • Timothy Nikkel fixed bug 847223, which means we no longer decode all images in a page when its first loaded. This can make an enormous difference on image-heavy pages -- we have one example where peak RSS dropped from 2,400 MB to 280 MB. On that same page the loading lag dropped from 5 seconds to 1 second. Assuming no problems are found, the constitutes the completion of the #1 item ("Better Foreground Tab Image Handling") on the MemShrink big ticket items list! Generational GC will be the new #1.
  • I am in the process of cleaning up the memory reporter infrastructure. One major change that just landed is that nsIMemoryReporter was removed, and nsIMemoryMultiReporter was renamed as nsIMemoryReporter. It's possible that this might break functionality in some add-ons.

OrangeFactor (ryanvm)

Stability (kairo/bsmedberg)

Roundtable

(Comments and questions that arise during the course of the meeting or otherwise do not have a section.)
