    • disposition of language bugs on which platforms?
      • specifically, is, e.g. Khmer on Linux a blocker? is Khmer on Win32?

Mac OS X Update

Build Tools Update

  • libxul turned on... caused mac perf regressions, so backed out for mac only
  • Moving forward on refplatform updates for Linux (CentOS5 matches the runtime requirements doc prepared by mconnor) and Windows (switch to VC8SP1 and MozillaBuild)
    • some minor tinderbox script changes necessary to work with MozillaBuild (bug 383775)
  • Had good discussion regarding build system futures, bsmedberg has yet to write up the blog post outlining the decisions and plans
  • Ted and Aravind set up a symbol server for nightly builds... :-)
  • If time, bsmedberg to investigate compiling with LLVM (they claim they can build Mozilla now, and others have claimed perf improvements)
  • Breakpad can collect minidumps on Linux now, but there's not any uploading UI yet... we're probably going to have a libcurl dependency for that :-(
