Major Topics for This Week

Dynamic Toolbar
Chris Lord landed bug 716403 which implements the core feature. He also landed bug 846772 which enables it by default. There have been some regressions, but those are getting fixed. See the "depends" list in bug 716403. Now that it is on by default, be on the lookout for any more regressions.
Roadmap Planning
Last week we completed the first steps of roadmap planning for Q2 and beyond. Next steps will continue to prioritize the list. We also need to do some resource planning. Some of the items are almost ready for implementation, others require some design, and still others require research and investigation before proceeding. More meetings will be scheduled.
Tracking Bugs
We are almost (maybe we are) past the point of no return for Fx20. Release Management has been actively pinging people on bugs that are tracking-firefox20. Let's pay some attention to those bugs, even if it is to give a summary of the situation.

Stand ups

Suggested format:

  • What did you do last week?

Last Week:

  • I've been working on multicolumn bugs for the last few weeks, so no progress in readability to report.

This Week:

  • Profiling performance issues with reflow-on-zoom to determine what might be causing lag when zooming in, then zooming back out. Note: Yesterday, when I clobbered/recompiled with the optimized build, I noticed that this issue is not nearly as pronounced as it used to be, leading me to speculate that there were some painting changes that may have been landed recently that may have helped fix this... I'm still double-checking this to verify whether the problem has gone away. These profiles will hopefully lead to a solution to bug 836565 and bug 836568.
  • Working on a solution for bug 800805.

Blocked On:

  • What to look for in the profiles that could be fixed/optimized to alleviate the zoom performance issue. What I've seen thus far, we're at about 40% time spent in nsPresShell::Paint and 40% time spent in layout::DoReflow. dbaron and I discussed possibly marking only a subset of frames dirty in the frame tree when we perform a reflow-on-zoom operation, but this may or may not get us what we want.
