Action Items
Schedule & Progress on Upcoming Releases
Firefox 4
- still waiting on final blockers for Beta 8
- will be shipped simultaneously with Fennec 2 Beta 3
- optimistic schedule is:
- freeze Thursday Dec 2
- builds Friday Dec 3
- ship Thursday Dec 9
Firefox 3.6.13 and 3.5.16
- Released to the beta audience yesterday
- 3.6.13 is throttled @ 25%
- 3.5.16 is not throttled as AUS can't support what we want and there are very little testers on the beta channel anyway
- Still on schedule
- The new billboard to encourage people to move off of 3.0 (and/or other unsupported releases) is getting finished up and will hopefully go live a week after 3.6.13
Add-on Builder 1.0a6
Input 2.1
- Release Date: 12/9
- Features: Ideas, Siphon by Device Types (for mobile), Better search on past releases
Fun-ness with the 2.0 release (for searches over the entire beta): sync, panorama, fast and slow
Jetpack SDK 0.10
- major deliverables all landed or pushed off as not beta blockers (except for one for which we're still trying to determine status)
- product-wide reviews over the last week identified a set of remaining issues, mostly around exposure of experimental, internal, or obsolete APIs and functionality
- remaining issues are being resolved at very high rate
- RC1 any day now
- track progress on blockers via bug 611250
Highlights / Notices
- starting full outreach now for Firefox 4 product l10n, long tail isn't actually all that long no more. 61 out of 86 locales are sign-ed off for beta, some 8 more are reasonably close. (Axel)
