* Milestone 6 ends. T-3 weeks to Firefox 25 landing.
** http://24.media.tumblr.com/6986166623219890aecb766874bcdd14/tumblr_mldjvvNI0Z1r6uouqo1_500.gif
** Big triage done.
** [Australis:M7] == Stuff blocking us from landing on m-c
** [User Research Build+] means we want this for...the user research build!
* Tabs
** Private Browsing indicator overlap on OS X fixed
*** three cocoa/titlebar bugs came out of this
** tab ui-review completed - many bugs filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=879581%2C879583%2C879588%2C879590%2C879592%2C879593%2C879595%2C879597%2C879598%2C879599%2C879600%2C879601%2C879602%2C879604%2C879606%2C879607%2C879609%2C879611%2C879613%2C879616%2C879618&list_id=6724345
*** see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Australis_Meeting_Notes#ui-review_issues
** MattN made a tool to take screenshots of various configurations of browser UI for UI review. Will be posting code soon - ask if you want it sooner.
** mstange has ...[mconley fill this out]
** Handy dashboard: https://people.mozilla.com/~mnoorenberghe/australis/
** Dao might be on board to help with classic mode
** tabs on bottom mode is gone
** Windows gap between the tab-strip and top of titlebar in restored mode is now at the final size
** [jared] talked to nrc about -mox-box-image implementation. he doesn't think it will get done for 25, so fading out the tab labels likely won't be part of australis. we'll have to stop tracking this as a blocker. he said that to implement -moz-box-image, he'll basically need to implement all of css masking, since they can't reuse svg masking
* Customization
** [jaws] working on temporarily disabling lightweight themes when in customization mode
** [jaws] will work on showing two lines of text for buttons in the panel, fading out text that is more than two lines long. also duplicating the label as a tooltip.
** [Gijs] fixed one of the problems with toolbar insertItem
** [bwinton] working on making enter/exit animation less janky. Got an idea, we'll see how it pans out. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=873060
* Bookmarks/Star button
** madhava working on triaging the IxD kinks (working with Stephen)
** We'd be OK taking Marco's patch and modifying it on 25 Nightly
* Jetpack
** Gijs is starting to work on removing the add-ons bar
** Jetpack needs to talk to Australis about how to anchor panels to overflowed items
*** We need to open a bug on this
* Other
** [mconley] I think now's a good time to solidify our backout plan.
*** [mconley] I like the idea of having a separate branch where we've already done the back-out. This, plus a general front-end freeze might be our easiest solution. Is this the way forward?
**** jaws will take this one.
** [mconley] Is there any messaging we need to prepare for when this lands on Nightly? I imagine a lot of folks are out of the loop and likely to be surprised.
** [mconley] when do we need to document CustomizableUI?
*** We should probably sweep through and dev-doc-needed them.
* Action Items (Last Week)
** ZER0 or erikvold: to test the toolbarbutton library on multi-window
** madhava: go through M6 bugs to determine if there are any big things missing
** madhava: walkthrough UX Nightly on Wednesday after M6 to smoketest
** MattN: (SVG on linux) will talk with perf/gfx/layout/whoever to figure out what to measure and if we're good
*** I was told that the SVG caching should make a significant difference in perf. Trying to get an update on a timeline and which condititions would cause cache misses. I will follow-up next week with any new info received.
** Jeff G: ping AMO folks to see if we can get better data on which top-N addons in the wild provide buttons, and maybe cross-ref that with FHR data on what addons users have active?
*** we cannot do any analysis on most of the top 100 as we do not have a library of samples of off-AMO xpi files. This would be a problematic task as some xpis are only delivered via .exe installers (!)
*** general feeling is, most top-100 add-ons we don't have in mxr rely on a toolbar for their main UI
* Action Items (New)
** mconley: We should make it not show the whole spritesheet if an icon hasn't specified a region.
*** a whimsycorn (probably not really, unfortunately)
** MattN: further followup for SVG on Linux
