Topics for This Week

Fx32 Post-Merge
We decided to disable two uses of ButtonToast in Fx32 on Aurora: Disable undo close tab toast (bug 1023406) and Disable switch-to-new-tab button toast (bug 1023407)
Video Casting and Roku
We made a quiet push for Nightly testing of the video casting feature. We are working toward adding more device support in Fx33 and will prepare a louder push for that timeframe.
Firefox Search
We are moving forward on multiple fronts: UX is focusing on an MVP on which we can build. Dev is iterating with UX on the designs. Dev is working to get the code in mozilla-central. We added a bugzilla category and bugs are being filed. Project page is here.

MozStumbler github, splitting code for a reusable Fennec component. Hope to have first iteration of this done this week, and have something I can test reliably in my Fennec build.

Summary of Fennec work: https://wiki.mozilla.org/MozStumbler-Firefox-Mobile Always looking for input on the integration project, particularly the 'outstanding items'. None of those items are blockers ATM.

Blocked on quickie integration of Stumbler code into Fennec, I want to be building Fennec+Stumbler and MozStumbler simultaneously

WebRT

  • rnewman removed old runtime implementation in bug 1021342 - MOZ_ANDROID_SYNTHAPKS is extinct
  • platform bug 1008126 regressed XHR in workers and thus APK downloads; fix landed in bug 1022607 and needs uplift to Aurora
  • puzzled by app perf problem bug 1023571

Notable Bugs

  • bug 995803 - crash in java.lang.IllegalStateException - uplifted
  • bug 957067 - Pass back error when incorrect data passed through in install APK - fixed
  • bug 1013428 - mozilla-apk-cli App Updates side-loaded don't appear - fixed
  • bug 1013433 - uninstalling, resideloading, and relaunching app causes it to stall at white screen - fixed
  • bug 960584 - notify user of download progress indication when fetching APK - needs feedback ibarlow
  • bug 1003962 - Line Runner hangs on launch with white screen - under investigation

QA

Feature Focus

Firefox 30 (Released!)- Release: Jun 10, 2014

Firefox 31 (Beta) - Release: Jul 22, 2014

Firefox 32 (Aurora) - Release: Sep 2, 2014

Firefox 33 (Nightly) - Release: Oct 14, 2014

Round Table

  • Forgot to add "bug 1001309 - Provide a way to clear history when Fennec's put into the background" to the list of potential things to hold from Aurora. The feature works fine, but the alternative favicon/thumbnails don't look good. There is work underway to fix this (where possible) on 33. Do we want to pull this? Is the security benefit worth the uglyness?
