Minutes
FlightDeck Updates
- dbuc: yesterday kumar ran a script to modify addons that were broken by repack
- script appeared to work but actually didn't, XPIs only had install.rdf
- working to fix script, addons have been restored from backup on production
- meanwhile piotr is updating repacker with versioning script we agreed upon
- if we have further problems, maybe we'll just do repack again
- myk: we have further problems
- kumar ran a script to fix the problems on dev server yesterday late afternoon/early evening
- in testing last night and this morning, that script didn't fix the problems or caused new ones
- dbuc: should we just do repacks again?
- dcm: it's an option, yes; can you test repacks in parallel?
- dbuc: yes
- dcm: then fix the repacker, test it, and if the fixer script is still having problems, it's an option
- -> dbuc to update bug, keep project apprised, and update planners at planning meeting tomorrow
SDK Updates
- gozala: there was a keybindings bug on a problem we thought was a regression in 1.1
- but it turned out that the developer had modified an SDK module, and the repacker broke their modification
- the repacker should take that into account
- gozala: also, there's bug about allowing additional keybindings
- should we cherry-pick that to the stabilization branch?
- myk: does it fix a regression?
- gozala: no
- myk: then it's an enhancement rather than a bug fix
- so let's ship it in the next release off the development branch
- gozala: once we ship it, we should communicate back to the developer of that addon
- that they don't need to modify the SDK's module anymore
- dcm: dbuc, do you have a list of addons that modified hotkey functionality?
- dbuc: i think wil has that list
- myk: in the future, we'll only repack Builder addons, where we don't have to worry about addons modifying the SDK
- but for this first repack, we repacked local addons, so we do have to worry about it
- so if we redo the repack, we need to make sure that the repacker doesn't repack addons that modified the SDK
- canuckistani: when do we expect l10n and mobile support to land?
- ochameau: i don't have any dates
- will update l10n bug shortly
- have mobile patches in queue, first should land soon
- but mobile support is divided into multiple branches
- dcm: our goal is full mobile support by end of year
Bug Update
- kwierso: there are a number of unconfirmed bugs
- some of them are prioritized
- do we care whether bugs are new vs. unconfirmed?
- myk: i think it's useful
- unconfirmed bugs are filed by new users
- we haven't seen their bugs before, not sure about their bug filing skills
- it's useful to have someone check them
- and if it isn't a bug, help them get the support they need
- if it is a bug, but it doesn't have enough info for developer to reproduce and fix, help get that info
- so i think we should keep it
- but we need to make sure to do the work
