* Milestone 9
** http://i.imgur.com/N2RY5Xa.gif
* Perf regression and other landing blockers
** bug 880611 (ts_paint regression)
*** [mconley] I've confirmed with vladan that the cold-boot stuff he wants me to work on is orthogonal to Australis, and is not a landing or shipping blocker.
*** [mconley] I've removed bug 880611 as a blocking bug, and will remove this from the meeting template.
** bug 902024 (TART regression)
*** SVG caching landed and stuck several days ago
*** Bug 921038 - Move selected tab curve clip-paths into SVG-as-an-image so it is cached
**** MattN has an SVG curve patch that mconley is currently reviewing.
**** Try pushes are currently baking to measure performance impact
*** Bug 924415 - Find out why setting chromemargin to 0,-1,-1,-1 is so expensive for TART on UX branch on OS X.
**** The Graphics team is currently on a work week, and we need their help to figure this one out. Investigation here is halted until next Monday when they're back.
**** Got some metrics data (bug 930235) on current 10.6 usage - ~2.2M 10.6 users, 2.3M 10.8 users, 1.5M 10.7 users. So still lots of 10.6 usage, not minor enough that it can be ignored.
** ts/tpaint data: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Asj8iLTl0K0UdDcxemJEWVVXWTlKek1wR09iS2FsOXc
** tart data: https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Asj8iLTl0K0UdGJzVnVYYkJTSDREbndRWWFTLWNyS1E
 
* Bug tracking (10/17 to 10/24)
** [jaws will be unavailable for today's meeting, notes are below]
** https://docs.google.com/a/mozilla.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AiPXmmKgSs8udHgzcEhqd0tkTXlJRU8zcXFzMEhneHc
** Graph of bug tracking: http://screencast.com/t/ENpG2aQpEf
*** P1: -3 (Blue in graph)
*** P2: -3 (Red)
*** P3: -5 (Yellow)
*** P4: -8 (Green)
*** P5: +1 (Purple)
**** Our P5s have grown very high, but the other priority buckets are moving in the right direction. Very good turn in the past week or two on the P2s, P3s and P4s.
** Will do a triage Friday of the bugs to reprioritize since we have successfully reduced our P1s and P2s down to manageable numbers
* UX Final Pass Bug Triage: https://firefox-ux.etherpad.mozilla.org/Australis-finalpass
*** Taking a pass at all the bugs starting with Windows 8: http://people.mozilla.org/~shorlander/mockups-interactive/australis-interactive-mockups/windows8.html
*** Mark as P3
* Roundtable
** [jaws] Keyboard accessibility for the Menu Panel (bug 881937)
*** unclear what the next steps are, bug has been abandoned
*** could do one of the following:
**** file remaining follow-up bugs and handle each of the bugs independently
**** backout the patches that have been landed and keep relying on the Menu Bar for the foreseeable future
**** (your idea here)
** [madhava] do we want to discuss the update-to-australis (onboarding) work?
*** [zhenshuo] I can give a quick update
*** onborading summary doc: http://f.cl.ly/items/2h0P0e2H393I1D2j3G3U/11OCT13_onboarding_intro.pdf
*** Landed in bug 862998
*** The prototype interactions have landed in Nightly and UX. Here's how to set it up:
*** 1. Open about:config
**** 2. Right-click anywhere and choose New > String
**** 3. A box will pop up. Put in "browser.uitour.whitelist.add.testing" without the quotes and hit OK.
**** 4. Another box will pop up. Put in "bedrock-unfocused.ngrok.com" and hit OK.
**** 5. Restart UX.
**** 6. Go to https://bedrock-unfocused.ngrok.com/en-US/firefox/22.0/firstrun/b/ and have fun!
** Bug 873060 - [meta] Make entering and existing customization mode feel smooth
*** mconley and bwinton are looking at this again now that the TART investigations are starting to ease up.
**** [jaws] (it would feel really smooth if we dropped the padding transition, or if we had a less obtrusive transition)
***** might be worth it to try removing the padding transiton, and doing something that immediately shows customization mode, but shows a transition of the menu panel animating in to to place (and possibly thickens the toolbars if that's not too expensive)
**** [mconley] Yes, I'd like to hear more about whether or not we want to try keeping the current transition, or if we're considering full-on alternatives that could be smoother.
 
* Action Items (Last Week)
** followup with roc/seth on bug 914617 since it sounds like the svg-as-image caching won't help TART, but this one should (and help avoid needing to redo a bunch of tab work)
*** [mconley] We've alerted seth that clip-path caching might be needed if the SVG curve patch just doesn't work out. He's aware of it, and both he and roc estimate that this is less work than the SVG caching stuff (but that's from a superficial examination). I need to update him and let him know that our SVG curve stuff appears that it might work. (Sorry for thrashing, seth).
** shorlander & UX: thinking on alternative transitions for entering/exiting customization mode
 
* Action Items (New)
** bwinton: Get a list of what we want to build in an a11y sense.
*** (Ordered by minimum to optimal.)
** bwinton & mconley: Sort out what the end state of customization mode smoothness is.
** madhava et al should file bugs for unfiled things on their etherpad link above
