Agenda & Notes

  • Account Provisioning
    • The add-on is ready to start testing against live servers.
    • We expect them to be available "in the next couple of days".
  • 3.0 EOL
    • 3.0.4 -> 3.1.4 Pushed out
      • before push: 124k users; 119k -> 106k this week.
      • unclear why numbers have not gone down; suspicion is that folks have turned off updates
    • [todo] Standard8 to drive experimenting with revising start pages to inform users about old/unsupported versions to provoke more updates
    • 3.0 EOL discussion now on tb-planning, release-drives plus sent to our Linux contacts.
      • If no issues, hope to do announcement in-sync with 3.1.5/3.0.9 release or before next Tuesday's meeting.
  • 3.2
    • Standard8 needs to document flags
    • Otherwise still waiting for branching decision based on account provisioning.
  • Trunk
    • PPC nightly builds suspected broken (bug 600965)
      • Really should follow MoCo with 32/64 bit nightlies.
      • Build has one 64 bit mac up and running. Need to fix issues with MailNews code.
    • Various dogfood issues, possibly including gloda & file locking; dmose to investigate & file
  • 3.1.x and 3.0.x
    • Watching one issue (bug 601440, otherwise ok for release.
    • Looking to do advanced planning on next release to try and minimise late-landers.
  • Anti-Virus Vendors
    • (outstanding) Standard8 planning to set up mailing list to inform partners, who have sounded receptive in initial discussions. Currently waiting on feedback from Kaspersky.
  • Advertised major updates
    • 3.0 -> 3.1.x:
      • 11th Aug @ 10%, 13th Aug @ 25%, 25th Aug completely unthrottled.
      • 7th September: Major updates removed due to 3.0.7 release.
      • 3.0.8 -> 3.1.4 available manually from 17th Aug
    • Suggest unthrottling 3.0.8 -> 3.1.4 on Tuesday 28th as then that will mean they will have had a 1.5 weeks to upgrade
    • 2.0 -> 3.1.x:
      • 18th Aug @ 10%, 31st Aug @ 20%
      • 2.0.0.24 -> 3.1.4 available from 17th Aug

  • Roland to work on Support article on making 3.1.x like 2.0.x
  • Conversion funnel
    • retention numbers similar to funnelcake 1
