SeaMonkey Meeting Details

Agenda

  • Who's taking minutes? -> Ratty

Action Items

(who needs to do what that hasn't been recorded in a bug) We should assign people to the open items.

NEW

OPEN

CLOSED

K.I.V.

  • Get permission from Google to use their geolocation JSON service [KaiRo]. We can still only wait on the Google front right now. Didn't hear anything about open Geolocation service yet. No easy solution in sight.

SeaMonkey 2.0.12

open blockers (1) blocker requests (0) fixed (26)

SeaMonkey 2.1 Beta 2

open blockers (2) blocker requests (5) targeted (2) fixed (115)

(Further 2.1 scheduling:)

  • Please help updating the New 2.1 Features page as we go.
  • Plans for 2.1: 6-8 weeks per milestone, b2 (feature freeze) probably in early January; b3 to follow; final to be decided later.
    • We'll probably close for the beta2 once SyncUI has landed.
    • As Firefox is trying to go RC in early Febrary, it makes sense to do a short-cycle b3 and try to match it with FF4RC. We can then make make b3 the final feature and string freeze, to be followed by 2.1pre.
    • InvisibleSmiley would be happy to ship 2.1 with a Gecko bugfix release instead of .0.
    • We should release within 6 weeks from FF4, but we should not release in the two weeks following FF4 final due to media being all about that release - with usually having a cycle of about a month or slightly more for security updates, I think that makes us be about on track for basing on and releasing in parallel to Mozilla 2.0.1.
    • Callek would like to build SM2.1b2 based on Firefox 4.0b11, if we can get Sync landed this week; otherwise to GO for a b2 build after the first sync nightly.
    • Note: Firefox 4.0b11 is slated to be "cut" this coming friday or so, with a weekend bake time.
  • There is a regression (bug 622376) caused by scrollable tabs landing. We can ship b2 with it but needs to be fixed before final.
  • Shipped Extensions: Chatzilla window still broken bug 605001 due to backend bugs. Venkman is still b0rken but that seems to be moving forward now.

Feature List, Planning

Bug statistics for last two (full) weeks: 47 new, 22 fixed, 16 triaged.

Open reviews/flags: 34 review 15 super-review 1 ui-review 4 feedback

Major wanted/needed features:

2.1

  • bug 460953 kill-rdf port.
  • bug 436794 Enable Mac OS X system address book per default and add UI.
    • SM UI needed, unowned, helpwanted.
  • bug 449728 Drag tabs between windows.

    • bug 477840 Backport KompoZer to Composer (Depends on bug 477845).
    • kaze has done a ton of work there. We still need to work out some organizational issues. At the moment there is no active interest from MoMo for bringing standalone composer into comm-central. That's something we (KaiRo and kaze) will have to negotiate with the Thunderbird team (dmose).

  • bug 526210 Update the icon set for the SeaMonkey Modern Theme.
    • bug 548778 New communicator icons (based on Strata theme) for SeaMonkey. Some proposed icons got posted, we should take a look how to get that contribution into the product.
    • The rest is unowned so far.
    • MReimer's drawing tablet broke some time back so he stopped working on theme icons. We should look into asking Mozilla's Direct Giving Program.

    • landed.
  • bug 606683 Allow customization of toolbar in Composer and MailNews Composition [IanN].

We also should take a look at the other items on 2.1-wanted Also the nominations need triaging.

    • Lightning 1.1 seems to be targeted to be Gecko 2.0-based.
