important (but not top critical)

  • status TBD - bug 1182629 - update to 38.1.0 from 38.0.1 re-enables disabled Lightning
  • status TBD - bug 1176399 - Multiple master password when GMail OAuth2 is enabled
  • status TBD - bug 1176748 - fix main thread proxies to the migration code (jorgk and m_kato helped in past)
  • proxy (eg causing foxyproxy problems)
  • topcrash bug 1149287 is ** 31% of our crashes** - see below
  • bug 1211291 (esr38, unknown in esr45) - Folders are visible, but messages are not. (?related to bug 1211358 lightning chrome.manifest not updated in 38.3.0 ?)
    • nobody has a clue about what to do with this, leaning toward shipping 38.7.0 with not fix. (wsmwk) agree, ship without fixing it
  • Problems updating to 38.6 to do with Lightning bug 1249894 and its five duplicates. Two users attached their extensions folder.
    • Isn't this the same as the one above, bug 1211291?

  • I have a huge project to convert ExQuilla to JS (prototype for a possible similar conversion for Thunderbird) that will take the majority of my time for the next six months.

Question Time

rkent, there is no 64-bit version of TB 45 for Windows. It seems only 46+ but the next public will be 52. :( Is there a possibility of compiling 45 in 64-bit?

  • Someone needs to work on the release engineering to figure out to enable those builds.
