ckitching

This week:

  • bug 1045950 - Stopped WebRTC from using pseudorandom camera image dimensions.
  • bug 1048651 - Spotted a critical flaw in Proguard that might eat our kittens. *whistles innocently*. Early stages of a system for generating Proguard keep directives from AST developed, though don't expect rapid progress on that front.
  • bug 1048683 - Devised a cunning way to shrink nine-patches by collapsing identical pixel columns/rows in the scalable region (subject to safety conditions).
  • bug 808872 - Working prototype of full-text indexing for Awesomebar queries. Order of magnitude performance improvement results (and query time ceases to be linear in history table size). (needs cleanup and slight rejig for landing, hopefully the next weekend should do it).
  • bug 1049105 - Removed a slightly hazardous and entirely unuseful parameter from the code generator. Used the opportunity to dump a few cleanup patches I've had lying around for a while onto it.
  • bug 1047971 - Deleted even more redundant field initialisers (added ability to detect redundant assignments-to-default present explicitly in constructors, as well as mopping up a few that bug 1041836 missed due to a regex bug. Whoops.
  • bug 1044794/bug 1044947 - Share overlay has entered review hell. Supports adding bookmarks and send-to-tab: no reading list support just yet. Hopefully landing in the not-too-distant future...


In the nontrivially likely event I'm absent from the meeting, blame my 0800 Google interview (that I hopefully haven't slept through by the time you come to read this).

<Read Only>

  • All armv6 builds and tests are now disabled bug 1042835

QA

Garvan

  • DB backend removed, posted MozStumbler build for community to test Fennec-related changes
  • Post code-review cleanup, and refactor out community-contributed code I don't feel like cleaning, and isn't used by Fennec
  • Working with rnewman on upload scheduling. Think we have agreement on a minimal/simple approach. Upload of stumbles occurs ~10 sec after ping from Fennec on resume, on pause. No other circumstance for now
  • Stumbling in Fennec to retest my changes
