Actions

Previous

• DONE: (jswisher) Send a message to dev-mdc with a call-to-action on JS translations (Guide landing page and sidebar template strings)
• DONE: (sheppy) Send a message to dev-mdc about improvements to the editor toolbar.

New/Continuing

• Please test the MDN staging server and file bugs under the django upgrade tacking bug. (See dev-mdn thread).
  • All areas need testing, so please just try stuff and see if you run into any problems.
  • Don't be timid! The database is separate from the standard MDN site database, so you can't mess up MDN by doing things on staging!
• Please continue to add suggestions or requests to the etherpad set up for gathering ideas for updates to the MDN editor toolbar. Sheppy is continuing to gradually work on these enhancements.

News

Note items here that you want to be sure the community is aware of. We won't rehash what's listed here, but may raise and discuss questions about these items.

• We have made decisions related to how to integrate compatibility information for new browsers (namely, Microsoft Edge), as well as a change to how we will handle iOS WebKit-based browsers in compatibility tables.
  • Ideas for best labeling for the iOS browser column?
    • Current text is: "iOS WebKit" then on a second line in smaller text "(Safari/Chrome/Firefox/etc)"
    • Suggestion from web dev folks is that Safari is their main concern so "Safari iOS" is their main concern; maybe make the other info available when you click a link or something.
    • Discuss.
  • Compatibility table guide
  • How do I add compatibility information for Edge or another browser?
• Web APIs docs meeting will be merging with the API dev team's weekly meeting with the tech evangelism team, since this will be more informative and better share information in this triad of groups that work together. We will also be moving the meeting to occur earlier in the day (and possibly on a new day). We'll announce soon once we finalize a time. Watch dev-mdc for updates.
