  • 3.0 EOL
    • Discussion started on tb-drivers
    • Standard8 to drive experimenting with revising start pages to inform users about old/unsupported versions to provoke more updates
    • Standard8 to draft announcement and pass round drivers then tb-planning.
  • 3.2
    • Standard8 needs to document flags
    • Otherwise still waiting for branching decision based on account provisioning.
  • Trunk
    • Standard8 to bump trunk to 3.3a1 to match Bugzilla versioning
    • Tracemonkey builder
      • sent email to js folks
      • Discussions with sayrer indicate that he wants a "Canary" style system, to protect tracemonkey tree from comm-central bustages.
    • mozilla-central considering branching sometime in the next week or two
      • probably want comm-central to mostly follow the branch, possibly with one or two tinderboxen to follow the trunk. Standard8 to put together more detailed thoughts.
    • libxul work progressing.
      • most of the issue lying in LDAP integration.
  • 3.1.4 & 3.0.8
    • MoCo look like they are homing in on having one fix out.
    • Still following them, but expect a release later this week.
    • 3.1.4 to respin for a second font issue & startup crasher once Gecko has fix.
    • 3.1.4 may also take part of PDF/apple-double bug
  • Anti-Virus Vendors
    • McAfee trying to reproduce and work on the reported problem. Sent them further details yesterday.
    • McAfee interested in a mailing list and also in getting closer integrated so that they don't detect false positives in our executables.

      • 11th Aug @ 10%, 13th Aug @ 25%, 25th Aug completely unthrottled.
      • 7th September: Major updates removed due to 3.0.7 release
    • 2.0 -> 3.1.2:
      • 18th Aug @ 10%, 31st Aug @ 20%
      • Probably 500k users upgraded, maybe more

    • Some users are asking how to downgrade on gsfn
      • fixed a few bugs
      • Throttle levels should stay the same 1 out of 5 will get an update offer. 1 ping a day (limiting factors: a few crashers, notably 3.1.4 blocker and one other)
      • Quick filter not visible enough for some user
      • Some password issues
 dmose: yeah, i wonder if the more leveraged place to iterate on design is  
 sumomo front page
 dmose: eg we can make a few changes to the start page, which we should
 dmose: but presumably we're only going to have a room for a little, 
 and then that content will guide people to SuMoMo
  • Conversion funnel
