November 18th

AMO Bug count

  • Largest open bug count drop in AMO history!

Development

  • Onsite was good times. We made a lot of big decisions, 2010 will be exciting.
  • We triaged/closed several hundred bugs, thanks to everyone who helped. If you want to continue I've made a query AMONeedsTriage. A bug is considered triaged if it has a severity, priority, and milestone.
  • 5.3 went out, thanks everyone
  • 5.4 scheduled to freeze on the 26th, we're looking good so far
  • summary and public post of our 2010 dev ambitions

QA

  • Would support a Thursday push of our already-verified 5.4 bugs

Product

  • staring at graphs
  • Add-on Compatibility Reporter emails sent last night - blog post
    • 1262 3.6-incompatible add-ons
      • 24 add-ons with compatibility problems
      • 105 add-ons that probably work fine
      • 321 add-ons with mixed reports
      • 830 without enough reports
    • 445 compatible add-ons
    • 321 add-ons not listed on AMO

Developer Relations

  • The queues are looking real good, under 50% of how they were 2 months ago. Blog post on this.
  • Massive bug triage. There are several old bugs assigned to Rey that still need to be reassigned and hopefully resolved.
  • Last cases of Gmail in German bug need to be resolved, and a new audit needs to be done for all add-ons with trusted status. Hooray for lists.

Community

  • Extend Firefox 3.5 first round of judging complete, waiting on responses from judges

The reasons given in this post show the ineffectiveness of the AMO development team.

I worked at Yahoo and I’ve used different Java and PHP frameworks in the past, some good, some bad. However, that never stopped us from having a continuous build running locally and an integration build running on our server, or from unit testing our code, even though we had to extend and adapt some components and unit testing frameworks. The same with debugging, it never stopped us from creating awesome tools to debug our code and monitor the performance of our applications.

After finishing building a CMS using Django, I can only say one thing: A framework doesn't make you a better programmer. If you suck, you suck.

November 4th

ryan in a box!

Development

  • Missed code freeze on 11/3, Rescheduled for 11/5.

QA

Developer Relations

  • 3.6 Beta 1 is out. Add-on developers were notified via e-mail, blog post and forums.
  • Appcoast editors are working on the queues and gaining momentum. The update queue is looking much better.
  • "Gmail in German" add-on list reduced to 46 add-ons + ~10 Personas. Looking into possible solutions, including disabling them.

Community

Marketing

Other

  • Should we switch our 2009 pre-mortem and our 2010 planning meeting so we can take advantage of what we learned in 2009 to plan 2010? (clouserw)
  • If a new contributor is looking for something to do, share the "good first bug" list: http://bit.ly/t58if . Feel free to tag similar bugs, but when you do add a comment that says why.
