Mac OS X Bugzilla Service

  • What: A Mac OS X service to highlight text and press CMD+SHIFT+X (or another key combo) opening all bugs in the selected text
  • Pain: Even though people have a search shortcut set up there is a lot of copying and pasting, which is annoying
  • Who benefits: Everyone at Mozilla using Macs, which is a significant amount of people. Plus, new people coming to Mozilla familiar with Radar
  • Tech: Cocoa Mac OS X service

DONE - Alex Keybl did an awesome job. Code @ GitHub and directions @ Alex's blog

Release management bot

  • What: An irc bot (like hubot or the bot at facebook) that can answer questions like which channels have the fix to bug XXXXXX?, has changeset XXXX landed on aurora?, when is Firefox 9 shipping?, etc
  • Pain: Release managers get tired of answering, developers and PMM people get tired of asking
  • Who benefits: Developers and release drivers
  • Tech: Python and/or Node.js based

Release management web calendars

  • What: Web .ics calendars that people can subscribe to. Should be able to slice it via channel, Firefox version, desktop, mobile, etc
  • Pain: People are unsure of future dates. The wiki is the reference but isn't 100% current and isn't easy to consume
  • Who benefits: Everyone
  • Tech: Python and Django

Finish mediawiki-bugzilla

  • What: Finish up the remaining work on mediawiki-bugzilla
  • Pain: Dealing with bugzilla and mediawiki is painful. The feature pages need better integration to enable richer tracking as well
  • Who benefits: Developers, project managers, product managers
  • Tech: PHP

Triage helper

  • What: A site that loads bugzilla queries and keeps viewers synchronized as you go through the bugs. Should also have a way of hiding certain fields and easy macros for operating on the bug
  • Pain: Triage is painful and 1/2 of triage meetings are people asking where we are, loading the wrong query in the wrong sort order, etc
  • Who benefits: Release drivers, project managers, product managers
  • Tech: Whatever, probably easiest in Node
