blocking

  • Bug 1162148 - Warning: Identity file /builds/.ssh/{ffxbld_rsa,tbirdbld_dsa} not accessible: No such file or directory (won't be needed after esr38, fixed in 42) - status? (DUP of [[bug|1173459} -> Fixed?)
  • what is holding up Linux builds on trunk? Edmund Wong looking at it.

important (but not top critical)

  • bug 1224846 (esr45) - TEST-UNEXPECTED-FAIL | toolkit/components/osfile/tests/xpcshell/test_read_write.js
    • Fallen?
  • status TBD - bug 1182629 - update to 38.1.0 from 38.0.1 re-enables disabled Lightning

  • status TBD - bug 1176748 - fix main thread proxies to the migration code (jorgk and m_kato helped in past)

  • 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?

Round Table

Jorg K

rkent

  • mostly working on JSACCOUNT. Have a first working conversion done of existing code, using JaUrl.
  • We really need someone to work on the fund raising issues, specifically:
    • updates to the start page to link to the new donate page
    • modifications to the download page to encourage donation at download.
    • Simon report out, we should discuss the issues and way forward.

aceman

  • observing some font selection problems in compose with Jorg bug 1265326 (bug 1265181 done)
  • cleaned up the import from the Becky! email client bug 684455 - who could be able to review that? Neil already did, we just need checking if I fixed his proposals.
  • would like to land something from bug 1174485 but need some testers. It would be a candidate for TB45.x.

wsmwk

  • release 45

PatrickB

  • integrating Enigmail into Thunderbird next steps:
    • Enigmail should be cloned into comm-central; there should be a flag to enable/disable building with Enigmail
    • There should be a new component for Enigmail in Bugzilla
    • we create a bug to start working on updating the build system
  • update on integrating Enigmail with pEp: slowly progressing - first prototype available

Pegasus

  • Enigmail's options should be integrated with those for S/MIME. E.g. If a user checks "Digitally sign this message" under Options, she should then be presented with a choice of certificates if she has both S/MIME and GPG ones. (Or is it possible to use them both simultaneously?)
