Firefox Development

(from our goals):

• [ON TRACK] Feature complete Firefox 4
  • [DONE] Switch to Tab
  • [DONE] App Tabs - Scope for 4.0 reduced (non-global), near feature complete.
  • [DONE] Extension Manager - Bug list is converging, still a lot of work to do.
  • [DONE] Web Console
  • [ON TRACK] Notification UI - Geo and EM notifications done, http auth next.
  • [ON TRACK] New Theme - Windows and Mac good, Linux catching up now
  • [DONE] TabCandy Panorama
  • [AT RISK] Silent updates on Windows
  • [DROPPED] Inspector
  • [DROPPED] Account Manager - WIP patches posted, but we can't contain the review load and code risk.

• [AT RISK] Dirty profile startup within 20% of clean profile startup (modulo extensions, plugins; on windows)
  • Current status: Lots of data has been collected and analyzed, but no solid conclusions have shaken out.
