Project Status

CrashKill [tomcat/marcia]

• Sheila and marcia noticed issue with ADUs on trunk - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=627846 was filed. This issue has now been resolved and the numbers are looking okay now
• We should keep a close eye on Socorro after the migration to make sure the data is all in order
• The default view on the entry page of crash-stats shows only "browser" crashes. chofmann had them make that change. If you want to see "All" crashes you will have to tick the appropriate box.
• Will begin looking at B10 crash data today

  • new Mac Topcrash for Beta10 bug 629004
  • lots of crash investigation and crash bug filing

Accessibility Status Update [marco]

• bug 606924 is landing bit by bit, it's a big bug that's been broken down into baby steps, and we're basically checking in one piece every day to use the nightly builds to test for regressions.
• Currently also hoping to fix bug 626647, a regular orange, by the above bugs.
• Discovered some new stuff in the current nightlies as fallout from recent checkins, namely:
  • bug 628668 which is a direct regression from part 2 of bug 606924
  • bug 628673, which is a regression from recent work like bug 498015 and bug 570275.
• Also working with a new assistive technology vendor from Germany to help them support us better, see, among others, bug 628644.
