Critical Issues

Leave critical bugs here until confirmed fixed. If confirmed, then remove.

blocking

  • 38.3.1 bug 1211160 calendar 4.0.3.1 is a workaround for 38.3.0 — Thunderbird Version 38.3 Buttons not working menu items // bug 1211291 - Folders are visible, but messages are not. (?related to bug 1211358 lightning chrome.manifest not updated in 38.3.0 ?)
  • nightly (3 bugs blocking builds, all are assigned) - bug 1195442 - Mac builds broken ~1 month on nightly
  • rkent is working on it - bug 1183490 - (dataloss) New emails do not adhere to sort by order received
    • Plan is to understand issues in converting completely to nextKey = ++lastKey for non-IMAP, then plan how much to implement for 38.3.0 A simple fix of the dataloss is probable. I have a try patch that does the nextKey = ++lastKey that works, now I need to think about patch for 38 (bug 1202105 needs to go to trunk and 38)
    • update 2015-10-20, patches have been posted but waiting for reviews for 2 weeks (aceman will look at those)

rkent

  • Discussion of Toronto meeting

Our common project is to consolidate and support TB Development and help TB become as autonomous as possible long term. TB Council has provided the p≡p Foundation with a list of critical needs to which p≡p is committed to provide financial and logistical support along with Mozilla Foundation. Since our meeting in Toronto, p≡p Foundation has already hired a C++ resource to address TB’s Component Maintenance issues and we are in the final stages of hiring a Continuous Integrations Engineer for TB. Furthermore, p≡p- via DigitalCourage - will help Thunderbird set-up the web-based donation system needed for further financial stability of TB in addition to the p≡p support.
