* "EU/US" meeting time: Tuesdays 9:00 Pacific ==Announcements & Notices==*  ==Talk==*  ==Roundtable==* [Tim] SettingsListener.observe()? ** Does anyone want to share or discuss the deprecation?** (Julien) not much more to add besides what I said on the ML** AI: Tim: Find the actual cases on the start-up race.** dev-gaia discussion link https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla.dev.gaia/dmwtN2PEtxM** Ben will help to find a module owner to revise the API.** (Tim) Please propose alternative interfaces for "improving" SettingsListener! ==Discussion about games in Firefox OS==** (Haroon sodacrunch@gmail.com) Can FFXOS include a simple 2D game instead of a huge html5 game like HexGL? I think using HexGL as an included game is overkill and not fresh/appealing. Why not commission or have a fan like me make a simple game that could be pitched to the gaia team? This game will also boost morale with game developers for FXOS, because right now its dismal, no game jam, no game showcase.... ==QA==Reporter:   ==TEAM UPDATES==(Alphabetical order) === Gaia Architecture Work ===* Telemetry library** Bugs on review, ready to launch and sync with performance information.* Web app bridge ** Feature complete, now fixing bugs found by sms and music teams.* Service workers** Focusing on performance now.** Some gecko patches still on the way to deal with the sw update mechanism in b2g* SMS app conversion moving forward:** Navigation patch is in review -- hopefully lands this week.
