| Weave 0.2 Requirements |
|
User Experience
|
- Streamlined first run, account setup, initial sync and reconnection.
- Improved error handling and communication.
- Integration with bookmarks UI to add sharing capabilities to fit within existing interaction model.
|
|
Data Synchronization
|
- First pass at moving toward heuristic vs. timed data synchronization to achieve "real-time" seamless propagation of changes.
- Additional data types supported to include: saved passwords, tabs & windows, saved form data and search history.
|
|
Data Sharing
|
- Secure read-only sharing of existing bookmark folder with another Weave user.
- Notifications delivered via XMPP.
- Ability to revoke or delete share by initiating or receiving party.
- Framework but no support for 1-N sharing.
|
|
Security and Privacy
|
- Ensure continued end-to-end data encryption and user-centric access controls through all use cases.
- RSA support in binary components (to replace openSSL) and switching to 3DESC support via NSS.
|
|
Performance and Reliability |
- Increased robustness and error handling for all network operations.
- Splitting deltas into multiple files for performance gains.
|
|
Build and Release Infrastructure
|
- Full cross-platform support for required binary components (e.g. to make NSS scriptable by chrome)
- Combining platform-specific builds to provide a single XPI that supports all platforms.
|
|
Server Components
|
- Switch to plaintext usernames and human readable URL schema.
- Logging and instrumentation of operational data to better understand scalability requirements.
- User access delegation to specific server resources (e.g. .htaccess)
