clokep

  • Instantbird will be doing a release off of 42
    • Whose approval do we need to uplift chat/ patches?
  • Reminder: Chat / Instantbird bugs now use the Gecko version as "target version"
    • Need to ask for "versions" to be updated
  • bug 1193438 is busting IRC (and I suspect XMPP) on aurora

rkent

  • discussed reviewers
  • what is Thunderbird all about/great at?
    • promoter of open protocols: imap, carddav
    • strength on multiple accounts/unified view
    • should end-to-end encryption be part of our mission

Question Time

With Mozilla's increased focus on mobile, are they yet putting resources on CardDAV sync (for FFOS?) If so, would they need to interface with us? Would this put some fire on the Address Book re-factor stuff we've been long talking about? Answer: FFOS has its own mail client (different target device resources) so likely wouldn't benefit from any CardDAV work we do. If the code is JS that's not necessarily true?
