Critical Issues

Critical bugs. Please leave these here until they're confirmed fixed.

  • Auto-complete improvements - some of those could go into esr31 (bug 1042561 still an issue)
  • ldap crasher: we'll need to see this in beta, trial patch should be in beta 37
  • certificate crasher: looking at crash stats for c-c I believe this is fixed.
  • Lightning integration
  • maildir UI: nothing more to do for UI, still want to land a patch for letting IMAP set this.
  • gloda IM search regressions: mostly fixed, some db cleanup necessary for users of TB33+ that nhnt11 will hopefully have ready to land soon.
