Thunderbird Meeting Details :

Agenda

Action Items

New

Open

  • Planning for a dry-run security firedrill build
    • Split the TODOs into two sections to so that we now have a short list of things that we really need to decide on.
    • Sent emails asking questions.
    • Will discuss remaining with Thunderbird drivers this week (probably via email).
    • Fire drill itself expected to happen after code freeze

Closed

Thunderbird 3

Branching

  • Tracking bug bug 522211
  • Branch Date: 22nd October.
  • Expect tree closure whilst actual branch takes place.
  • comm-1.9.1 repository has been created.
    • Please do not push to it until after we've announced the official branch.
    • You can however pull from it if you wish to set up new repositories before the branch - Standard8 is keeping it in sync a few times a day.
  • Expect existing comm-central + mozilla-1.9.1 to archive the mozilla/ directory and swap back to mozilla-central.
    • Final details coming on/before the branch date.

RC1 etc

  • Now in String freeze
  • Schedule:
    • Creation of comm-1.9.1 branch: Thursday, 2009-10-22
    • Code Freeze for RC1: 2009-10-30 23:59 PST
    • L10n deadline: 2009-11-02 23:59 PST
    • RC1 builds start on: 2009-11-03
    • Subsequent RCs as necessary.
  • Please set bugs to assigned status (as well as owner to you) if you want to do them.
  • If you have other bugs assigned to you that you don't want to do, please reassign or discuss with drivers.
  • If you see what look like theme/css issues, especially on Windows, please file a bug, with a screenshot, and the version of Windows you're running. Tag it with a "polish" keyword, and nominate it for blocking-tb3?.

QA Updates

  • Work on crasher is going strong
  • Held the upgrade/migration day. We some of the bugs found are worth being fixed before the release :
  • Update day was quite successful (6-7 IRC participants; more than previously)
  • upcoming activities until RC1 builds :
    • Normal bug day
    • Cleaning up litmus wrt to email account creation
    • working on getting people on board for RC test week

Marketing Updates

  • In the news: Windows 7 shipping on Thursday, there is no email client built-in so articles trickling in about what happens/alternatives/what to do
  • Continuing prep for press tour which starts on Friday in Paris
  • davida/dmose/rebron travelling for the next few weeks; will be available online, but intermittently

IT update

  • AUS / l10n updates
    • comm-1.9.1 l10n updates disabled until we branch
  • Getting ready for branching to comm-1.9.1
  • SUMO infrastructure
