Agenda
- High Priority Work
- Cross-domain content scripts
- UX Work
- Places API
- DOM Window for add-ons
- The great last repack
- De-traitification
- SDK
- Blockers?
- Roundtable
- Should we ask for Aurora (or even Beta) uplift for bug 855651? We've apparently broken SDK addons for IceWeasel and company in SDK 1.14, and the fix for that won't hit an official Firefox release until sometime in August.
- How/when should we resolve bugs now that we're shipping in Firefox?
- When the fix lands in the github repository?
- When we uplift that to inbound?
- When that inbound uplift gets merged to m-c?
- We have a github hook to auto-resolve when a commit message includes "fix bug xxxx", maybe we should disable or tweak it so it adds a whiteboard flag instead?
- Can whatever system we choose be mostly automated (as part of m-cMerge, perhaps)?

Minutes
High Priority Work
Cross-domain content scripts
Jordan will take over the SDK side of this. Gabor will advise.
UX Work
- work on button almost complete
- proposals for the other pieces are progressing
- Erik: give us feedback on APIs
Places API
Jordan: please look at the proposed API and give us feedback.
DOM Window for add-ons
Irakli: this is still a work in progress.
The great last repack
Will: trying to figure out how we will be able to review ~1500 add-ons before Firefox 22 ships.
De-traitification
Irakli: no progress this week.
Blockers?
Erik: has a PR for chrome manifest support, with a permissions flag for authors to ask chrome.manifest to be included. Asking for feedback on whether this is the right thing to do.
Roundtable
Should we ask for Aurora (or even Beta) uplift for bug 855651?
We've apparently broken SDK addons for IceWeasel and company in SDK 1.14, and the fix for that won't hit an official Firefox release until sometime in August.
Mossop will ask for uplift today.
How/when should we resolve bugs now that we're shipping in Firefox?
- When the fix lands in the github repository?
- When we uplift that to inbound?
- When that inbound uplift gets merged to m-c?
- We have a github hook to auto-resolve when a commit message includes "fix bug xxxx", maybe we should disable or tweak it so it adds a whiteboard flag instead?
- Can whatever system we choose be mostly automated (as part of m-cMerge, perhaps)?
We should stop marking our bugs fixed until they are uplifted to m-c, for consistency with the rest of Mozilla. Maybe GitHub hooks to add a whiteboard tag, then uplifts can mark tagged bugs as fixed? We need to work more on mechanics, but agreed that the principle is right.
