Holiday Campaign Technical requirements discussion

Attendees:

• Kev
• Les
• Chris More
• Fred Wenzel
• Chelsea Novak
• Greg Jost
• Chrissie
• Mike Alexis

• We'll use the framework for BYOB, but not BYOB
• App will have no registration or login

Three possibilities

1. Prebuilds with 5-6 add-ons

• three addons = 24 possibilites
• the more add-ons the bigger the deal
• Want to stop at 125 possible builds
• pre-compiled builds with preselected addons.
• Kev can do sample build

2. Add-on installer with opt in at the time of installation

• adds a few seconds to load time

have to sign everything with moz signature have to get configuration details to repackager need to figure out automated signing

3. On the fly build

• is most costly.
• Would need releng
• would need to justify extra resource and dev time

Things to consider from product marketing:

• Narrative changes in prebuild/readymade vs on the fly.

Kev will talk to releng to see what feasibility of on the fly is vs prebuild

Web dev is creating form app tied to db

• build side needs automated system to sign and send them off

email sent can be customized but more dev work. shouldn’t be fully customizable

We will need pre-approved add-ons for prebuild. pre-vetted list of add-ons criteria:

1. what is the distribution license? 2. what does it do? performance hit to browser 3. UX and content

Chelsea and Greg will start looking at different categories of add-ons and licenses.

To reiterate, we should not use the BYOB site but we can use the framework. A lot of BYOB is overkill. Much easier to put something together using Playdoh.
