UX Work

Some test errors have appeared in Australis after merging (bug 906690).

DOM Window for add-ons

Irakli is working on a rewrite for windows and tabs. A patch is expected in the coming two weeks. (https://github.com/mozilla/addon-sdk/pull/1207)

Add-on Debugger

A slight setback on bug 898559, needs to be rewritten in C++ now. Bug 899052 should be committed in the coming week.

SDK

  • cfx.js
    • Erik thinks porting cfx to JavaScript may not be the best course of action after all.
    • Discussion about moving some of the functionality of cfx directly to the addon manager inside Firefox and having a thin JavaScript wrapper calling the manager.
    • Discussion about removing dependency tracking in cfx.
    • Suggestion about creating symlinks in the profile directory to an addon that's in development instead of running cfx run every single time.
  • Fennec Test Harness with SUTAgent
    • May of may not be blocking cfx.js
  • child_process
    • Jordan is working on it.
    • node-like API.
    • Works on Unix right now, tests on Windows are partially green.
  • Bug 907184 - require does not honor multiline comments
    • Dependecy tracker in cfx mistakenly treats require expressions in multiline comments as legitimate requires.
    • Not going to fix it in cfx. Not in Python, at least.

Roundtable

  • Removing vim settings in source, does anyone use these?
    • Probably due to consistency with m-c
    • We should remove them in a separate pull request.
