Report back from Iteration 44.1 (last two weeks)

  • Product
    • PLR (product line review) last week, deep dive on add-ons. Slides will be shared with staff later this week
    • Going all in on personalization, recognizing that add-ons tell the future of the product.
    • Feedback from SCVP: Overall very well received. Needs to be a narrative around extending customization of product, but also how we’re protecting users. How to use add-ons properly, protect from malicious add-ons.
  • Engineering
    • Set up iteration meetings, all in Add-ons Calendar.
    • Have we welcomed mstriemer yet? If not welcome.
    • Metrics dashboard (for AMO site performance, add-on lifecycles, etc) up and running [kumar] quick demo, maybe?

    • A pile of improvements to submission, tracker now closed.
    • Android and Langpack signing on the next push
    • One last addition: jquery security upgrade
  • Ammo
  • Other teams present who want to share?

Plans for Iteration 44.2 (next two weeks)

  • Product
    • Add-on signing doesn’t go away, turned up in 43, so we need a good picture of what the release channel looks like. ** In advance of the telemetry landing, we’re working on that.
    • Consumer side:. Making it easier to discover add-ons.
    • For the next bi-weekly, we’ll have a nice documented roadmap!
    • From the Developer side: developers need to understand the submission process, and product needs to work with UX on this. signing is a big part of it, looking at discovery, addons manager, developer mode, and user stories for that. FxOs Add-ons are launching in beta now!
    • WebExtensions - comparing what we have now with where we want to be, so we can declare the plan for 1.0
  • Engineering
    • Push going out this week with a jquery update for AMO, fixes 9 bugs!
    • Signing API at command line. Goal: be in production by the release of Firefox 42.
    • Web Extensions: bugs filed, people getting their feet wet.
    • Hiring, one good candidate in the pipe
    • NoScript
  • 44.2 iteration planning: http://mzl.la/1VBRTsL
  • Ammo
    • FxOS add-ons beta launch
    • Clarify confidential code submission policy to avoid signing formal NDAs
    • Update and simplify add-on policy docs.
    • Reviewing and merging some add-ons policy docs for clarity and brevity as well as discussing changes to the add-ons dev agreement with legal
    • Onboard new reviewers (expect 2 or 3 volunteers and 2 or 3 employees).

Q&A and other business

  • Would like to have regular (or semi-regular) presenters on Add-ons topics at the Monday project meeting, so look out for the schedule.
  • Quick note on program management - next week we will welcome Shell Escalante as Larissa’s co-epm
  • Anything else on Q4 goal coordination? Plan to be locked by Friday
  • Demos if we have time! (no time, sad, will add time to this meeting)

Actions:

  • Everyone please talk to Larissa about your Q4 goals by FRIDAY (Oct 9)
