B2G/Gaia

  • code freeze on 15th
  • qualcomm has series of bugs blocking them
  • what will qualcomm be looking at in our ecosystem?
  • DevHub? Marketplace?
  • in general, there are a series of end-to-end tests
  • then they go to a third-party certification provider
  • regulatory certification
  • then in-country carrier certification
  • that latter certification is where there might be issues raised

Packaged Apps

  • packaged apps blocked in two places
  • dietrich tracking device bugs
  • bugs assigned to several people
  • bsmith has had blocking bugs on server side for months
  • keeps getting pulled off for other work in Firefox desktop
  • we need to get these done, and we only have five days
  • we should enable bsmith to focus on client-side code
  • unclear if he's still working on other things
  • mtreese and pmpcat to contact managers to ensure bsmith focused on this work

Packaged App Signing

  • faramarz nominated fzzzy to own packaged app updates
  • unclear what work is in scope, sicking will ask dietrich about it
  • decision: lsblakk will provide tech leadership with fzzzy
  • approach: separate the immediate need to review preloaded apps from the overall, ongoing app review process
  • need to get clarity (granular level) on each app
    • is it packaged? is it hosted?
    • does it require privileges?
    • what privileges does it need?
    • need much more detail... pmpcat to take back to kward etc
