mconley

Last week:

  • Customization
    • We hit our Australis Customization milestone 1 last week, and landed those changes on UX. Things are still a bit fugly. We're working on it.
    • Talked with shorlander and fang about what widgets we are going to ship by default, what we plan on cutting, etc. See bug 855290.
    • Started hacking on the Bookmarks widget - see bug 855805.
  • Curvy Tabs
    • Set up milestones for Australis Curvy Tabs to measure our progress
    • Got r+ on bug 8013802 which puts the menu in the titlebar on Windows. Thanks MattN for the thorough reviews.


This week:

  • Downloads panel
  • Customization
    • Milestone 2 is next Wednesday. We're hoping to have our widgets figured out by then, but having the actual widgets completed might be a bit optimistic (especially with jaws on vacation). Might have to re-evaluate milestones.
    • Hoping to land a fix that stops the widgets in the nav-bar from re-ordering themselves on session restart (bug 855295).
    • Other items
  • Curvy tabs
    • Milestone 1 is tomorrow - we're looking OK to have most of the goals accomplished here (1 or 2 might slip)


Blocked on:

  • Waiting for feedback from Unfocused on bug 855295.
  • Need firm spec on Bookmarks widget from fang / shorlander (bug 855805).
