* Milestone 7 halfway. T-2 weeks to Firefox 25 landing.
** http://i.imgur.com/U50ApVN.gif
** We're slogging through our M7 bugs, but there have been many snags. We're definitely going to be making use of those days after M7 and before merge day.
* UR
** session observing / assistance
** A reminder that the build needs to be provided to the user research team before June 17th. So we've only got a tiny bit of time left to clear our [User Research Build+] bugs
*** Go go go http://i.imgur.com/1nZVVGl.gif
** [mconley] I've created a set of scripts / executables that create new profiles, clone the default profile, and dispose of those profiles:
*** https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2921989/UR%20Build.zip
*** Here's the script I wrote, and compiled to an executable with py2exe: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/attachment.cgi?id=761129
*** Please test this on a Windows machine if you have one. I've tested on my Windows XP VM, Windows 7, and Windows 8 VM...but since this is a py2exe'd executable, I think I'd be more comfortable if other people tried this out.
*** Decompress, and run the NewProfile batch file. Then the CloneProfile batch file. Then the ResetProfiles batch file to clean up.
*** If this is satisfactory, we can drop a try build of UX into this ZIP and send it off to the UR group.
* Tabs
** mstange's patch to move the standard window buttons down is just waiting on a review from dao now, and then should be good to go! https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=851652
** mstange also did some OS X polish
** Private browsing bugs moving along
** 2 Talos regressions found
*** mstange is taking the titlebar one for OS X 10.6 (bug 880620)
*** MattN will investigate other (880611)
** Improved the look of in-titlebar menubar ( https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=879590 etc.)
* Customization
** [mconley] Lots of performance investigations this week. Many thanks to bwinton and BenWa for their help.
*** Wrapping and unwrapping nodes is expensive!
*** Transforming the padding causes sync reflows - but for the effect we're trying to achieve, this *may* be unavoidable.
*** MutationObservers in the panel cause sync reflows
*** Bug 880701 and bug 881909 should help a little, and may be ready for the UR build (pending review), but we're going to need to hammer on this a bit more - maybe during the work week.
** jaws has scheduled a ui-r for next week to make sure nothing truly unacceptable is going to land in m-c (Tues @ 8am PT, ping jared if you want an invite)
** [jaws] been working on getting the wide widgets to not break up the rows of buttons in the menu panel
*** on my plate are also the menu panel redesign work (bug 880918, bug 872544 and bug 878065) as well as animating drag and drop work (bug 879863 and bug 880388)
**** can someone take one of those chunks of bugs to help me out?
* Bookmarks/Star button
** Madhava put up a plan for the bookmark widget: http://f.cl.ly/items/113C3o0O3q2P21152o3X/australis_bookmarks_2013-05-12.pdf
*** mak has started working on this.
** [mconley] For the UR build, what should this widget do if it's in the panel. madhava suggested a "this isn't ready yet" notification. Are we cool with that?
* Jetpack
** Filed https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=882910
** We might want to think about unifying toolbarbutton with badge types (we've got one type that the SDK is supposed to use, and one type that Social buttons use...)
* Other
** Decision point near on migration / addon bar removal
*** Working on auto-migrating stuff as it's inserted into a shim. Works OK, but some/(many?) add-ons break anyway. See: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=749804#c9
** New button styles for OSX have landed. Keep an eye out for bugs. Bug 856665.
* Action Items (Last Week)
** MattN: SVG on Linux followup
* Action Items (New)
** mconley: Disable sync in UR profiles? app updates too?
** dolske: can we update UR build between 17th and 24th?
** dolske: talk with Jorgev about removal of statusbar shim in 24, can get get a list for compat risk?
** madhava to follow up with Dolske re: blog posts, etc.
