Agenda & Notes

• Major updates (dates subject to feedback)
  • Still planning on Aug 3rd, if no problems w/ feedback.
• 3.1.1
  • Came out today, is live now.

• 3.0.x
  • 3.0.6
    • also out today
  • dmose pinged MoCo folks about 1.9.1; no response; will re-ping

• 3.2
  • Still planned to come off mozilla and comm-central 1.9.2, unless 2.0/FF 4 dates come in.
• Conversion funnel

• Trunk maintenance
  • Getting too difficult to keep open - too much non-libxul build bustages
  • Proposed route for trunk:
    1. Go for the libxul option 2 asap.
       • We know we're going to libxul
       • It will fix the current bustage, and protect us from any more non-libxul versus libxul
       • We can then finish cleaning the tree up and hopefully get it open again, with potentially fewer closure periods.
       • Unfortunately this may mean more complex/slower builds for some devs until we get step 2 done.
    2. Let the work that is being done on external API finish
       • because I can see devs, and maybe linux distros, wanting this.
    3. Do some performances tests of internal & external APIs.
    4. Make decision on which to ship with Thunderbird trunk.
