• M8 - bug 1173219 - Make TabParent::RecvCreateWindow less crash prone
  • Landed. Requesting uplift to address topcrashes on Aurora (bug 1180667)
• M8 - bug 1114299 - [e10s] link with target="_blank" opens window with no tabs/toolbars/menus
  • Still working on this. Our window opening code is pretty brittle.
• M8 - bug 1146454 - Remove CPOW usage in printing
  • Patch up and waiting for review
  • Should close two M8's
• M8 - bug 1174239 - Identify and reduce synchronous messages sent from the content process upon tab open or switch
  • Talking with BenWa, reducing the sync messages is only part of the problem. All it takes is one sync message from the content sent to the parent while the parent is busy doing something to slow us down. We need to also free up the parent as much as we can.
• Lots and lots of reviewing code this week.

ursula

• Still working on Bug 1021654 to convert about:newtab to content. Interactions are working and patch will be up for review today
• Patch for bug Bug 1171344 (one-off searches for about:newtab) is supposed to land soon which means my patch for Bug 1167601 to convert newtab.xul to newtab.xhtml will land shortly after

jimicy

gabor

• Bug 1173451 - Shim issue in safe mode - landed, waiting for aurora

(also fixed Bug 1177499 and Bug 1177838)

• Bug 1170484 - Facebook spelling correction - found some issue with the way we deal with microtasks after messages (Bug 1180686), it can take a while to fix that, because khuey is refactoring the area and we have to wait for it. Also not sure that the bug is caused by that, since Bill had a suggestion for workaround and it did not work out. I'll keep debugging.
• bunch of reviews
• I'm running out of m8's feel free to dump stuff on me
