RNewman

  • In SF.

  • Distrodistros: CDN is live, patch is reviewed, docs are written; getting close to landing. (Follow-ups expected.)
  • Locale testing: doing a couple of builds with new locales (52!) for Jeff.
  • New Android SDK/build-tools work fine, only zipalign needs to be symlinked.
  • Wrestling endlessly with Eclipse: needs to add the Play Services projects to make the ChromeCast stuff build, and now Fennec crashes on launch. Sadface.
  • Debugged an exciting client record bug with Nick: bug 1032483. If you have duplicated devices in Send Tab or Synced Tabs, this is why.
  • The usual miscellaneous reviews and patches.

Chris Kitching

... Has returned.

Complete

Ongoing

  • bug 1024289 - Cleanup of the "combined" database view to improve performance (and slightly reduce the vastness of the crazy in BrowserDatabaseHelper.java)
  • bug 948509 (and related) - Starting rnewman's fancy overlay project. Basic idea being to use an overlay to allow for more convenient handling of share intents without users having to perform a complete activity switch and lose their train of thought. Later work hopes to do something similar for handling ordinary link-open intents. Input from UX-esque people appreciated (hopefully Richard can help to flesh out any missing details).
