Action items
Feature Status Review
- Firefox 86 (Release)
- AVIF Disabled just before shipping due to concerns/bugs around Mozilla's implementation. Shipping plans are unclear at this time.
- Firefox 87 (Beta)
- Some concerns with the scope of work that's planned for Proton. Some work likely to land in Fx88 but presents little risk as most of the code is pref'd OFF until Fx89.
- Investigating missing features from Trello tracking. Suspect i'll be adding cards over the week
- Firefox 88 (Nightly)
- Building feature list. No major concerns at this time.
- Proton scope is in flux a bit as engineering deadlines are beginning to slip a bit. Scope conversations happening with leadership this week to try and mitigate these concerns. GOOD this is happening NOW and not during the final moments of Fx89 Beta!
SUMO Report
Roundtable & Special Topics
- Missing Cross Functional reporting for Release milestones, quality metrics, and QA updates. What would you all think about a weekly email (I would put together)
