(Alphabetical order)

Gaia Architecture Work

  • Telemetry library
    • This week Bug 1179662 and 1178923 landed.

    • Trying to work around with caching
  • Service workers
  • SMS app conversion (Julien: sorry that I can't make it)
    • This week we mainly fixed regressions from past week's landings.
    • discussed with bzbarsky and ehsan about why we maybe don't need prerendering -- filed bug 1199674 to add profiles so that they'll be able to look at why we're slow at changing pages.
    • otherwise, other work is moving forward: startup profiling with workers, services implementation...
  • Music app conversion
    • Working on features, performance
    • Activities done, removed dependency on Service Worker, test coverage
  • Contacts app conversiontam
