Firebug 1.10

• Release 1.10a11 out
• Firebug 1.10 beta 1 in couple of weeks!
• What should be the minimum required Firefox version for 1.10?
  • Still not decided

• List of 1.10 blockers

• We need to fix issue 5221: Can't debug code made with console of FB 1.9 but can do it in <1.8
  • Still a problem

Cookies

• Firecookie initial integration done
• Next Steps:
  • Remove *Tools* menu and *Export All Cookies* option
  • Show Rejected Cookies needs to be fixed
  • Merge issue lists: Sebastian, try to import all the issues using API
  • We should change "firecookie" to "cookies" in string bundles.

Automated Tests

• Test bot works again.
• Fix manual test result upload
• We need to fix
  • html/5255/issue5255.html
  • css/computed/5449/issue5449.html

Issues

• Issue 4176: Commands in Firebug
  • Honza: we should keep existing command line API for UX back compatibility.
  • Simon's demo

• Issue 1309: Add `console.benchmark`
  • This should be rather a command: ":benchmark"

• Issue 4231: do not alphabetize custom objects' properties in console
  • We need to see how other in-browser tools do it first.
  • Honza: one preference "sort yes/no" should be just enough.
  • Honza: kick off a thread on FWG

Miscellaneous

• Firebug to remove the built-in inspector context menu (or provide an option to remove it)
  • We can introduce a preference, but it shouldn't be done by default (but, nobody would probably use it).
