Previous Action Items

• [mschifer] to follow up with Platform/Automation re: WebGL automation coverage (so we can catch issues like bug 975824 more easily). WebGL test suties available, not kept up/disabled, Marc to talk to them about how we can help them. [done]
  • Meeting scheduled for Tuesday 9am

Discussion Items

• [henrik] What do to with the EV certificate issues? Nothing happened for those in the last two weeks and I still think it's not fully investigated yet. Users could not trust the identity display anymore because EV sites are shown as unknown after a restart of Firefox
  • https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=995801
  • https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1000151

[existed in Fx28 as well not current regression, targeted to be addressed Fx30 currently]

Channel Status

Beta (Fx 30) (Tracy/KaiRo)

• Beta1 in QA for release tomorrow.

ESR (Fx 24.5)

• Launched!

Automation

• Kamil and Nils started to help out with the merges for mozmill-tests
• The issue with the remaining TPS test (Bug 990509) seems to be due to Bug 1003250 - Disable automatic sync for TPS tests
• JSbridge disconnect issue (bug 994658) found culprit (security.dialog_enable_delay", 250), working on a regression window now. Increasing the timeout seems to alleviate the problem.

Stability

• 29 looks pretty good so far, crash rate on beta went down to pre-29 levels with the RC being shipped to beta.
• GGC crashes on 31 are being tracked, looks like devs are pretty much on top of things

Community

• lizzard: GNOME-OPW interns starting in mid-may, Maja Frydrychowicz (One and Done, python coding, from Montreal) and Francesca Ciceri (Desktop triage, community building, from Italy)
