TEAM UPDATES

(Alphabetical order)

Gaia Architecture Work

  • Telemetry library
   -We are closing in on feature complete.  
   -Few more review items outstanding + 1 blocker with app startup time we are working on.
   -Contacts team is trying out the custom metrics.
  • Web app bridge
  • Service workers
  • SMS app conversion
  • Music app conversion
   - Working on performance optimizations and functional bug fixes. (see more below)
  • Contacts app conversion
   - No new updates, working on blockers, we got ride of the performance regressions, but still we can see how contacts 2.2 in current mozilla central performs works than in gecko 2.2
   - Patch on the way, start using custom metrics to check how features are being used.
  • Sync
   Landed, now bugfixing. Next week work week in Taipei to be sure 2.5 sync on tv will run smoothly.
