Status Updates
mconley
- Ensemble
- In contact with a small firm in Slovakia that might be interested in hiring a contractor to help me on this
- Successfully decoupled nsMsgSearchTerm from nsIAbManager using my new service
- This should be ready for review soon (see bug 841603, and then I'll work on decoupling other bits
- A bit worried about the performance impact of frequently calling out to JS components from C++...
- Haven't had too much time for reviews lately. :( This might get worse, as Firefox Australis work is really starting to heat up.
- Profiler has been updated to give us symbols! Get an updated version of the Profiler here: https://github.com/bgirard/Gecko-Profiler-Addon/blob/master/geckoprofiler.xpi?raw=true
jcranmer
- Guess who won't be on the call? Not me for once!
- Should have more time over next few weeks to do stuff including reviews
- cc-rework
- Higher priority due to fallout from moz.build changes
- Elimination of comm-central/configure.in works on Linux, doesn't on OS X due to LDAP, untested on Windows (see bug 846540)
- jsmime
- Landed bug 834757 (fix up nsIMimeConverter for JS implementation)
- Working implementation of nsIMsgHeaderParser locally, not published anywhere
- Hoping to get both parts into Thunderbird 24 (will fix almost all RFC 2047 problems!)
wsmwk
- patchlove
- reviewing existing patchlove bugs and finding more old bugs with patches to add to patchlove
- having good results in closing obsolete bugs and getting old patches landed
- bug 816327 - gmail folders redownloading - data collecting seems to be bearing fruit
clokep
- Sent Mossop an email, didn't receive a response and pinged him on IRC last week:
- Mossop was sick and should respond "soon".
- Will follow up more aggressively again this week
- http.jsm will need another change (found while updating to the Twitter v1.1 API): https://bugzilla.instantbird.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1890
- Twitter v1 API could potentially be shut off as of March 5th, they're doing "blackout" tests now. Patch to upgrade is waiting for review.
Standard8
- Mainly working on tree bustages, and working with Jcranmer on sorting out the build system so that we can hopefully avoid more bustages as the build system reorgs itself.
- Trying to catch up on reviews soon, but tree bustages and releases taking priority.
Action Items
- jcranmer: Ping bienvenu about WIP maildir converter for GSoC (by Friday)
- Ask Roland: is there a way we can give people SUMO permissions for article editing without having to bug you about it?
