SeaMonkey Meeting Details

Agenda

  • Who's taking minutes? -> Ratty

Action Items

(who needs to do what that hasn't been recorded in a bug) We should assign people to the open items.

NEW

OPEN

CLOSED

K.I.V.

  • Get permission from Google to use their geolocation JSON service [KaiRo]. We can still only wait on the Google front right now. Didn't hear anything about open Geolocation service yet. No easy solution in sight.

SeaMonkey 2.0.11

open blockers (1) blocker requests (0) fixed (32)

SeaMonkey 2.0.12

open blockers (0) blocker requests (0) fixed (0)

  • Based on Gecko 1.9.1.17, target date TDB, see Releases, in sync with Firefox 3.5.17.

SeaMonkey 2.1 Beta 2

open blockers (1) blocker requests (3) targeted (1) fixed (57)

(Further 2.1 scheduling:)

  • Please help updating the New 2.1 Features page as we go.
  • Plans for 2.1: 6-8 weeks per milestone, b2 (feature freeze) probably in early December; final to be decided later.
    • We'll probably close for the beta2 once SyncUI has landed.
  • Unsure how this fits Firefox 4 plans as they are still trying to get to their feature freeze.
  • Firefox 4 now officially being in early 2011, which gives us a bit more time.
    • As Firefox is now going RC in January, it makes sense to do a short-cycle b3 and try to match it with FF4RC. We can then make make b3 the final feature and string freeze, to be followed by 2.1pre.
  • Beta 1 on PPC is broken.
    • We have stopped PPC builds.
    • We have converted our Mac boxes to 64bit switched Mac trunk to Intel 32/64bit universal builds.

Feature List, Planning

Bug statistics for last two (full) weeks: 38 new, 20 fixed, 22 triaged.

  • Fix rate is dropping, probably not too many reviews happening. Can we improve?
  • Good further triage targets could come out of looking at the component bug counts, pick yours!
  • Proposed SeaMonkey Triage Week
    • We have categories at SeaMonkey:Triage_Week#Categories we want to look at, together with the dates that are hopefully ok.
    • We've decided to use the existing #seamonkey channel instead of creating a special purpose triage channel as this is a pretty quiet channel and the regulars are already here.
    • InvisibleSmiley will create a wikipage with instructions for people wanting to help who are not familiar with triaging.
      • The General Information page will contain the UNCO/NEW bug searches that are already on the Categories page.
    • InvisibleSmiley suggested to concentrate first on the UNCO bugs and then on the NEW bugs.

Any other business?

  • [Neil] Do we have a list of platform-specific reviewers?
    • Not at the moment. We are still waiting on the rework proposal from Callek for the project areas list, it's due in today.
    • [KaiRo] If in doubt, I'd be happy if we went with code review alone and trusting the coder that it works as it should for such cases. Along with a call for testing once it landed (in m.d.a.seamonkey and m.d.quality).
