Minutes

Flight Deck

• AMO queries / metrics on use of jetpack
  • GregK working on it, statsd instance, builder metrics
  • no word on download stats
• packageless & JS/CFX support
  • unsure how CFXJS would work?
  • 2 stages
    • invoke headless firefox
    • eventually move to pure JS implementation
    • interface and baheviour should stay the same
    • main issue would need a server-side firefox?

SDK

• recent landings to fix leak-related errors - cherry pick for 1.7?
  • not yet - not a timely issue
• bug 751466 - Repacking?
  • stopped because the re-pack process was error-prone
  • started seeing errors
  • need evangelism effort
  • possible to eventually de-list add-ons from AMO
  • no silver bullet
  • how easy is it to tell if an add-on can be easily re-packed?
    • balance simple case vs numbers

• reminder - releasing 1.7
  • Jeff will stand in for dcm

• when to land Bug 751584? supports only > 13
  • Irakli will post to mailing list about this

• tests are all orange
  • also not shown by default
  • need to ensure our tests are all green on the main tree - including backing out changes
  • adds more process, but improves our integration with platform process

• bug 746131 last comment - A new repository for CFX.js?
  • may make sense? will discuss out of band

• last blocker bug for 1.7? Will land it today
