Minutes
- followups from last time:
- myk failed to post to mailing list about js/jetpack situation, focus on reviews
- SDK doc testing bug created (bug 630696), but brian hasn't looked for tools yet
- flightdeck
- in slushy freeze, bugs still being fixed. Release still planned for thursday PM.
- some users have problems with Addon-Builder-Helper, some don't
- Skywriter/ACE has new release, but if release is supposed to happen in two days, probably not a good idea to pick it up yet, too new
- sdk-1.0b3
- freeze next wed
- irakli is focussed on platform catchup, and de-focussed on E10S, so pagemods-E10S is a miss
- traits simplification: r+, updated, back in r?, on track
- myk's E10S integration (clipboard, selection, windows, tabs) are a miss, won't be able to answer E10S questions by then
- loader-rewrite is at risk: patch not yet ready for review, it will be large and destabilizing
- XPI signature: brian will push discussion this week, code should be easy, but not likely to happen until loader-rewrite is done
- NPM/$JSPATH are dependent upon loader-rewrite
- docs-on-AMO patch is looking for feedback
- annotator-addon tutorial is on track, patch will be up for review today
- automated testing update
- buildbot results are still being hidden from FF developers
- buildslaves are still hanging when some JP tests fail
- clint is looking at buildslave-hanging
- once that's fixed, it will merely be a problem of JP tests failing
- we will disable intermittently-failing JP tests
- roundtable
- E10S platform capabilites research - nsIJetpack/CPOW/Content-process-event-handler. Alexandre is looking for help with some code, used by Fennec, included in FF4 but not used there.
- dbuc: web-devs would like pagemods to match on URL patterns with multiple stars, not just at tail of URL. Good idea. We made the pattern the existing way to match a feature in FF that does CSS modifications, but never ended up building that. We could push a platform fix to generalize the CSS modification thing, or let jetpack diverge from that syntax.
