Agenda

Action Items

  • any?

SeaMonkey 2 Alpha

all blockers blocker requests

  • bug 381157 download manager (soft blocker)
    • Status/Progress?
      • Nothing yet. Callek is concentrating on build and build-config bugs.
  • bug 390025 kill-wallet (password manager) (soft blocker)
    • Started movement on bug 419595 (fixing LDAP urls), much happier with patch now.
    • Rest of work waiting on finding some more time (probably Wednesday).
    • Most likely to get in for TB 3.0b1, so it may make the SeaMonkey alpha.
  • bug 394522 prefwindow move (hard blocker)
  • Blocker triage?
    • IanN will started the triaging of blockers on behalf of the SM Council, how's it going? What blockers have we determined? Do we have assignees actively working on them?
      • Status meeting on freeze day to decide to freeze for all but serious bugs + prefpane.
      • There are 6 blocking+ bugs and 11 blocking? bugs for a1.
      • bug 431636 is waiting for a review so should be off the radar soon.
      • Download Manager (including bug 28385) and Password Manager bugs to be moved to blocking-seamonkey2+ and minused for alpha.
      • bug 418150 is waiting for a response from mcsmurf to a question.
      • bug 423211 (bookmark importing) needs looking into.
      • The remaining confimed blockers currently are prefpanel migration, bookmark importing stuff, and disabling feed discovery on the release branch.
  • Shipping target - still aimed at freezing on 9th September. Can we make it?
    • It looks like we can make it modulo prefpane or two.

Longer-Term SeaMonkey 2 Planning

  • Toolkit feature-freezes in two weeks for 1.9.1 - the following needs to land before that:
    • Neil's patch to customizeToolbar.js (needs review by gavin).
    • We'll need some ifdefs around the toolkit tests as it assumes the toolkit DL Window entirely. Callek will work on that.

Any other business?

  • I'm trying to encourage the SeaMonkey user community to contribute to the more non-technical (e.g. QA, help text, web site) aspects of the SeaMonkey project, so I filed bug 449004 (SeaMonkey Website Install Documentation Needs Updating). I hope that someone can help review this bug so that I can use this as a positive example to the wider community. Ratty
    • Split this up into separate bugs, one per issue and convert the existing bug into a tracking/meta bug.
  • Kuden is working on updating the Modern theme specifically the missing toolkit parts. I think we should let these patches be RTL aware. Ratty
    • Callek points out that the toolkit UI chrome is already RTL aware, so the theme should follow. KaiRo and Neil agree.
    • KaiRo recommends making SeaMonkey RTL-aware component by component, window by window.
