Who's away?:

Engineering

Metrics (benbangert/rmiller/vng/trink)

Heka

• Added stream parsing to TCP and UDP inputs (issues #381 #165)
• Removed the MessageEncoding enum from the protobuf message (issue #381 eliminated the need since TCP/UDP inputs were the primary users).
• Removed the JSONDecoder (issue #381 eliminated the need). Note: the JsonDecoder only supported message.proto JSON and there is now a generalized PayloadJsonDecoder.
• Removed the decoders array configuration in favor of a single MultiDecoder (issue #308). Impacts: AMQPInput and LogfileInput.
• Setup the new dashboard skin, ready for Nick to dive into.

SimplePush (jr)

• 1MM concurrent connections.
• Updated moz-services branch to v.0.6 (1MM+ concurrency branch)
• Apparently, someone gave a talk about us:http://slid.es/franciscojordano/firefox-os-push-notifications
• Fixing logging to be far less CPU intensive.
