   Updates:

   Investigating 1.2 app launch time regressions:

   Meta bug here:  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=915068

   First suspected general regression shown in datazilla

   https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=892965

   Spent Oslo week investigating this

   Conclusion is that it is a testing artifact due to interaction between test delays and our pre-allocated process launch heuristic.

   Short term solution is to increase datazilla test delays between app launches.

   Long term solution is probably the Nuwa template process work.

   Unless partners are using similar automated delays, this is probably not effecting their results

   Automation team helped run eideticker tests to try to reproduce regressions seen by partners

   Many thanks to wlach for working over the weekend on this!

   Eideticker measures launch time to "first stable frame" using high speed camera

   Initial results do not show any consistent regression, although the results are a bit noisy.

   Continuing to investigate.

   Need to compare our test methodology with what the partners are doing

   Need to compare revisions between tests since our eideticker test run may have graphics fixes from Oslo that the partners had not received yet.

   Making good progress on power measurement automation with the battery harness implementation.

   Meta bug here:  https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=917375

   Native stack unwinding in SPS profiler landed last week.

   Add MOZ_PROFILING=1 to .userconfig when building b2g

   Event target fluffing has landed! https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=900638 Thanks to Dale.

   Tiled layers back end is trying to land https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=894333

   Share URL should now work with email https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=796565 - thanks email team!

   Still a bug with Bluetooth web activities https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=895480

   User selection of default search engine is going to be disabled by default https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=914593 and search suggestions is not going to be implemented for 1.2 https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=833149

   As usual you can see our backlog in Pivotal Tracker https://www.pivotaltracker.com/s/projects/867301

Comms app

Talking this week: Anthony 

   Nothing new since the Friday demo so…

System front end

Talking this week: gregor 

   Bug tracking: https://www.pivotaltracker.com/s/projects/877441

The team: cserran, gwagner, ladamski, reuben m, kyle m, michael h, aus, francis, jason, atsai, pdol 

   Closed most user stories (2 open ones, 1 has failing test), Looking at possible regressions. (related to support and preloaded contacts runtime customization)

   Planning for 1.3 (Download Manager, persona signin, offline error handling, more powerfule notifications)

   Whiteboard tag - [systemsfe] - use this to get on the System FE team's radar

Bocoup

Talking this week: Mike Pennisi (mike@bocoup.com :jugglinmike) 

   Welcome Yannick Assogba (yannick@bocoup.com // irc:yannick_a) and Brendan McLoughlin (brendan@bocoup.com // irc:bmac) to Gaia

   Landed Timer and Stopwatch

   A few changes left to be ironed out

   No duration since timer expired feature, need UX input

   World clock in 1.3?

   Investigating a performance regression in clock related to LazyLoad-ing

   Investigating a leo+ Alarm bug #908525

   Considering moving some code from clock/ to shared/

   Event emitters

   https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/blob/master/apps/clock/js/emitter.js

   IndexedDB upgrade/downgrade abstraction

   https://github.com/mozilla-b2g/gaia/blob/master/apps/clock/js/database.js

   Useful elsewhere in Gaia? 

   Working with David Flanagan to figure out our goals for 1.3

   Ideas welcome

   Still need devices for testing

   We have 2 non-developer build Alcatel One Touch Fire's, and 6 unagis

   We need 7 phones for 1.3 development

OPTIONAL UPDATES

System platform

RIL

Media recording

Device

Round Table

   Travis Build Results (and why we still need travis for fabrice)

   Tree Closures

   http://ricaud.me/mozilla/dashboard/ If you want to see how many unit and integration tests are passing/failing

   running tests on 1.2

   I've heard there will be mozilla-aurora builds for B2G, should we be running these in automation (UI/Performance)? What Gaia branch would these run against? We're currently running mozilla-centra/master and mozilla-b2g18/v1-train, would either of these need updating? We're limited on devices so we can't easily add more tests at this stage.

   Feedback from Tony Chung was that b2g18/v1-train should go away soon.  As we ramp up m-a/1.2 we can migrate the test resources over to there.

   Buris are very finicky and (for many engs) difficult to develop on. Are there better devices (like the nexus 4 perhaps) that we could test patches on?

   If you use ./flash.sh, you'll break it. 

   We need a Windows only tool. That is painful for developers.

   We need ./flash.sh to not override Gonk

   OTA update for ZTE Open enables Fastboot - how do contributors take advantage of this to flash their own build?

   hamachi nightly builds not useful - need to disable gonk flashing in ./flash.sh?
