Contents
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
- Get permission from Google to use their geolocation JSON service [KaiRo]. Contact at Google says: "We don't have a good estimate for when GLS will be opening up more broadly, but I will be sure to let you know when we take that step. Sorry that I can not be more specific at this time." - We can only wait right now.
- KaiRo to email Google again
CLOSED
SeaMonkey 2.0 Beta 2
open blockers (1) blocker requests (0)
- The open blocker is only shipping it ;-)
- Build are up for testing at 2.0b2-candidates/build1 and on the betatest channel.
- 16 locales made it, including en-US we have 17 languages.
- Compared to 2.0b1, nl is new, but cs didn't make it.
- Targeted ship date: Friday, September 11 (Firefox 3.0.14/3.5.3 are targeted Sep 9).
- So far we are on target. It now depends on QA.
- This is our last beta, so we are feature-frozen for the 2.0 series now! Exceptions will only be granted in rare and really-high-value cases.
SeaMonkey 2.0 Final
open blockers (10) blocker requests (20) open wanted (21) wanted requests (30)
- We need triaging of blocker and wanted requests, can IanN do that?
- We can probably put off a number of things, where they sound useful, to 2.1a1 or 2.1.
- The theme regressions are all just about sorted.
- Target schedule: Freeze October 6th, and ship mid-to-end October.
- Thunderbird is expecting RC1 freeze on 3rd November but string freeze on Tuesday 29th September 23:59 PST or so.
- Freeze on October 6th should allow at least a week of string freeze for final and allow us for some time of candidate testing, whether we push them as public RC releases or not.
- We should set up plans for string and code freezes, ideally with string freeze on Thursday 1st October before code freeze on Tuesday 6th October, and targeting to spin an RC1 on Wednesday after code freeze.
- We need to branch soon, slightly before string freezes at least.
Feature List, Planning
Bug statistics for last two (full) weeks: 68 new, 37 fixed, 30 triaged.
Major wanted/needed features:
2.0
- Toolbar customization aftermath [Ratty]
- bug 481862 We still need small button icons for modern in MailNews. Needs someone who understands both css and svg/graphics.
- bug 509209 Implement Customizable Toolbars in SeaMonkey Message Compose. Last round (I hope) of nits fixed. Waiting for reviews.
- Addressbook and HTML Composer toolbars won't make it in 2.0 so targetting 2.1.
- bug 460960 Port Thunderbird tabbed interface to MailNews.
- LANDED for 2.0b2!
- bug 456757 Modern theme update [Ratty]. mozapps/ has landed.
- bug 465924 Modern Update: changes in global/. The last remaining bit is notifications.css. Depends on bug 512254 Port bug 429282 (Land new windows icons (20080416)).
- bug 348720 New icon set for "SeaMonkey Default Theme".
- status/progress?
- No News, really need something moving for 2.0 final!
- bug 460953 Port jminta's kill-rdf to SeaMonkey where applicable.
- status/progress?
We also should take a careful look at the other items on wanted-seamonkey2+ for things like things like:
- bug 436794 Enable Mac OS X system address book per default and add UI.
- bug 508039 Port |Bug 456439 - add about:rights and a "Know Your Rights" infobar to Firefox| to SeaMonkey.
If there's anything on that list you think we shouldn't take for 2.0 any more, please notify KaiRo, so we can push them to 2.1.
2.1
- bug 410613 OpenSearch. helpwanted.
- We need to check if OpenSearch can support all our existing functionality, for example the INTEPRETS section in Sherlock search plugins. Mnyromyr will check on that, and on how extensible the Firefox code is.

wladow
Any other business?
- do we have a QA person these days?
- Our QA isn't well organized, no lead etc. We badly need someone there. And a test day would be cool
- Should we be asking the community for a QA lead?
- We should, KaiRo already tried, but no success so far
- A test day could help to get the QA community rounded up but someone also needs to organize that.
- Does MoFo have a handy guide on how to run a test day? is it something we can ask for help from them? IIRC someone from them offered help on mozilla.dev.quality.
- How soon are we looking for a test day to be done? Is it best to wait until after EuroCamp and see if we can get someone on the QA strand there? We can do it any time, either on candidates or final 2.0b2 builds.
- Do we have any idea of the prep and resource required? _Tsk_ from Mozilla Messaging can probably help to gather what we need.
- Who's going to MozCamp, Prague? KaiRo, stefanh, Mnyromyr, sgautherie, probably IanN.
- People need to write some blog posts for the SeaMonkey blog to show off what SM2 features. Mnyromyr needs to write a summary on tabmail anyway, so he can make a blog post from that as well.
