January 14

Design

  • latest from Boriss, hooray!
  • Nick wants contributions in the mocks, here's some metadata to consider
    • link to contribute going to AMO meet the dev page
    • dollar amount
    • buy vs contribute
  • Feedback from fligtar
    • We can consider getting add-on status data from AMO along with reviews and downloads, and show whether add-ons are reviewed by Mozilla or not reviewed by Mozilla (experimental, self-hosted, and non-hosted add-ons)
    • We should change Recommended to Featured
    • Not a fan of the name Features for add-ons
    • Should be more distinction between My Add-ons and browsing for new add-ons
    • I don't think size information is useful or important to display on every add-on
    • I don't think we need to worry about integrating collections for 3.7. The Add-on Collector will add sections for Personal Recommendations and Collections to 3.7 and we'll be changing the way collections works considerably this year. Perhaps it will be stable enough for core integration for 4.0

Frontend

Note: That's on OSX. Needs tweaks on Windows (and probably Linux) to make it look not ugly.

Backend

  • Produced list of requirements from AMO API
  • Removing support for extension dependencies.
  • Tweaked some of the notifications to better suit add-ons that don't require restarts.

Jetpack

Ecosystem

January 7

Design

  • Boriss furiously slapping together mocks, will post to wiki

Frontend

  • Blair working on initial prototype of EM in content

Backend

  • Mossop to provide suggestions for changes to API as we rewrite services.amo

Jetpack

  • Jetpack rewrite happening which will allow authors to write jetpacks and build them into standard extensions

Ecosystem

  • AMO being rewritten in Python/Django
  • API update in February will feature add-ons by locale (currently all browsers get the US feed)

October 29

  • Boriss has created mocks to show in content
  • Todo: start looking at how to blend different types of add-ons into a single list, and incorporate AMO metadata
  • Mossop still working on 3.6 blockers, should start work on API stuff next week.
  • Johnath and Gavin coming next week, will sync up on prefs + EM work

September 17

Personas

Plugins

  • Adding rudimentary ways to check for plugin updates to the add-ons manager. See the screenshots in bug 514327. Checking for updates loads a webpage that will explain how to update.

September 10

Design concepts needed

  • Contributions
  • Reviews (both read and submit)
  • Better, friendlier browse experience
  • Personalized Recommendations
  • Performance gauge

Personas

  • Will land in 3.6, not in minefield yet. Hopefully we'll be able to see this integration next week

Timing

  • We should start having this meeting weekly, and set goals with the intent of including a new add-ons manager in 3.7
  • Naming of the add-ons manager may change with the goal of creating greater awareness of add-ons (e.g. "Firefox App Store")
