The linked document below is used for planning and development of specs for upcoming releases of the Add-ons Builder. Once a release spec is finalized on the roadmap, it will transferred to wiki format for quick reference during development cycles. (see the Releases section below)

* [https://wiki.mozilla.org/AMO/FlightDeck/Roadmap Product Roadmap FINAL Q3 2011 - Q4 2012] - DEPRECATED
* [https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HkweYLL0lms39WErxl5VPNdrV6yBLgxW1301DBf8q-0/edit?authkey=CO269KwF FlightDeck 2012 Roadmap (Detailed Description)]

=== Feature Pages ===
* [[AMO/FlightDeck/Feature_Pages/Repacker|Add-on Repackaging Service]]

=== Release Process ===

Add-on Builder
* Releases may go out as frequently as once per week, on Wednesday afternoons at 2PM PST
* Prior to release, code will freeze at the beginning of the week on Monday (not withstanding any critical patches we allow)
* The PM will interface with the Developer Manager and IT to ensure the release is properly scheduled.
* Depending on the outcome of QA testing the release can be green-lighted and tagged on Github any time between Monday and Wednesday, but a decision to push must occur at least 1 hour prior to the scheduled release time.
* At the time releases are taking place, all developers are required to be on hand to triage any issues that may arise on live.

Add-on Repacker Runs
* In coordination with the Add-on SDK team, the repacker will begin test runs on the AMO dev site when a new SDK version enters the beta phase of code verification.
* The repacker will only repackage add-ons on AMO that originated from the Add-on Builder.
* QA will verify the repacker acted on the right set of add-ons, produced add-ons that operate as expected, and that no errors were thrown in the process from either the repacker code or SDK cfx xpi build loop.
* A link to the repacked add-ons on the AMO development servers will be posted so add-ons devs have a chance to check and verify the repack of their add-on was successful.
* Upon verification by the two parties above, results will be communicated to the SDK team by the Builder PM. The SDK and Builder teams will examine the results and make a joint decision if and when to begin repackaging add-ons on production.

=== Release Process ===

Add-on Builder
* Releases may go out as frequently as once per week, on Wednesday afternoons at 2PM PST
* Prior to release, code will freeze at the beginning of the week on Monday (not withstanding any critical patches we allow)
* The PM will interface with the Developer Manager and IT to ensure the release is properly scheduled.
* Depending on the outcome of QA testing the release can be green-lighted and tagged on Github any time between Monday and Wednesday, but a decision to push must occur at least 1 hour prior to the scheduled release time.
* At the time releases are taking place, all developers are required to be on hand to triage any issues that may arise on live.

Add-on Repacker Runs
* In coordination with the Add-on SDK team, the repacker will begin test runs on the AMO dev site when a new SDK version enters the RC phase of code verification.
* The repacker will only repackage add-ons on AMO that originated from the Add-on Builder.
* QA will verify the repacker acted on the right set of add-ons, produced add-ons that operate as expected, and that no errors were thrown in the process from either the repacker code or SDK cfx xpi build loop.
* Upon verification, results will be communicated to the SDK team by the Builder PM. The SDK and Builder teams will examine the results and make a joint decision if and when to begin repackaging add-ons on production.

__FORCETOC__

== Actions from Last Week ==

=== Kev to come back with a summary of the current state of the ESR discussions ===

NOTE: As of 11:00 Pacific, this update is incomplete. I will update this page by 13:00 Pacific, and will go over missing items on the call.

The response from the Enterprise User Working group has been mostly positive, in that the proposal meets needs. We've also spoken with large software vendors, and the concept of the ESR is something that they believe they can work with. There are concerns around specific sections of the proposal, notably:
* The possible limitation of ESR to two full release cycles (this has been outlined as a minimum, per the proposal, but there is concern that the ESR would end at the minimum)
* Limited access to the ESR via authentication or paywall mechanisms
In addition to the discussions around the ESR, there has been additional discussion around GPO and MSI support, but those conversations are out of scope for the proposal itself, and we're trying to keep them separate.

Media response to the proposal has been factual, and has been neutral across the board. In general, the proposal has been accepted as something that addresses needs and shows that Mozilla is listening, but needs ratification from both organizations that deploy Firefox and Mozilla itself. References to various articles written about the article are available below:

'''Top customer issues and plans to fix'''

Top three '''FF7''' issues and plans for resolution:

*'''Performance''': 22% of & 2 star reviews on Android market this week report that FF7 is too slow. Startup shrink and memshrink projects continue work to resolve, see also https://wiki.mozilla.org/Mobile/Notes/05-Oct-2011#Performance.
*'''Flash player support''': 22% of 1&2 star reviews on the Android Market this week report that they need Flash player; flash player is the top complaint (other than device wish list) on SUMO with 98 votes this week, Flash is the most common issue reported against FF7 on input.mozilla.com. 17% of email sent to 'the developer' from Android Market this week were also requests for Flash support. Flash support did not make FF9, but there is a prototype in progress.
*'''Stability''': 11% of 1 & 2 star reviews on the Android Market this week report that the browser is unstable: freezes phone is most common, followed by crashes, and lastly it is resource heavy.

Top three '''FF8''' issues and plans for resolution:

*'''Permissions''': 24% of 1 & 2 star reviews on the Android Market this week report that the browser has unacceptable permissions (phone identity), see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=691054 for the fix
*'''Support for flash''' is second most common below-average review comment.
*'''Performance''' (slow & unstable) is third.

FYI: 55 people on SUMO reported receiving a fraudulent SMS message about a Mozilla Firefox phone number drawing in the UK requesting an email reply.

* 1.0 final public release remains targeted for early to mid-Q1 2012
** I will be engaging with marketing as that time horizon draws near
* Q4 2011 goals are on the goals wiki under the AMO section
** This quarter is about shaping and hardening the existing feature set for the upcoming final release
* KPI stats update:
** There are currently over 8,500 registered users on the Builder - an increase of almost 400% Q/Q
** The Builder is currently home to some 15,700 add-ons and libraries, ~2,000 of which have seen significant development - an increase of more than 400% Q/Q

=== Add-on SDK ===

Release (1.1 -> Firefox 7)
* Did a post-mortem on repacks process
* posted a proposal for repacks (short term and long term) on dev.planning, addons blog, and jetpack forum ([https://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/10/04/add-on-sdk-repacks-proposal/ Proposal])

Stabilization (1.2 -> Firefox 7, 8)
* Third test build 1.2b3 spun yesterday
* Are moving release up one week to Oct. 18th ([https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla-labs-jetpack/e0RkE4zW9ew discussion])

Development (1.3 -> Firefox 8, 9)
* Merge to stabilization will also be moved up one week to reflect new schedule

== Feedback Summary ==
=== Desktop ===

'''Firefox 7.0.1'''

* '''Lots of sync complaints around server problems''' (mainly because it's distracting)
** Can't delete accounts because of a deletion-page error (users try that first when they get errors)
** We may have broken the "reset your sync account" fix as well
** Errors about incorrect passwords are not the correct error and often confusing.
* Add-on compatibility
** Yahoo Toolbar is definitely incompatible and not fixed by 7.0.1 but I'm no longer sure about the lost bookmarks tie-in.
*** From kev: Yahoo took down bookmarks.yahoo.com, Toolbar is compatible but binary isn't which leads to bustage and a storage migration that prevented users from accessing the bookmarks they had.
** AVG -- users need to update manually.
** Some norton complaints but getting better -- Updating is slow
* Yahoo Mail errors (may have been server problems on their end)
* '''Angel (a course management software used by a number of universities) isn't compatible with Firefox 7, some schools are advising users to downgrade to Firefox 6.''' {{bug|673714}}. Blizzard is working on this.
* Lots of complaints about java: [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/?locale=en-US&product=firefox&version=7.0.1&date_start=2011-09-27&sentiment=sad&q=java] and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/880125]. This may be related to Angel (above).
* Complaints of freezing/hanging (again, may be more than usual, hard to say) [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/880728] (for example).
* "XML Parsing Error: undefined entity Location: chrome://browser/content/browser.xul." errors. Caused by add-on updates (may be related to updating from Firefox 3.X - Firefox 7), may be not.
* '''Firefox gets stuck and is unable to load pages after a while.''' Caused by network.http.max-connections getting set to 256 (changed in {{bug|648570}}). [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/881844]

'''Firefox 8'''
* Videos on Apple.com only play audio (they're delivering h.264 content to Firefox builds). {{bug|528314}}
* Can't drag and drop tabs into bookmarks: {{bug|674723}}.
* Scrolling on some sites is slower than usual on OSX: [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/?q=scrolling&product=firefox&version=8.0&date_start=2011-09-27&date_end=&sentiment=sad&platform=mac&locale=en-US]
* Lots of Sync complaints here as well: [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/?product=firefox&version=8.0&date_start=2011-09-27&date_end=&q=sync]

'''Firefox 9'''

(A rehash for those of you in the Aurora meeting yesterday, but now with bug numbers!).

* Add-on compatibility (in Aurora you get 3 weeks on, 3 weeks off), which is a pain
* Weird toolbar resizing problems: [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2411294] and [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2416361] {{bug|691917}}
* Problem with closing security exception window (?) [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2414004]
* A couple complaints about how we're moving tabs around: [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2421141] and [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2420402].
* A couple complaints involving download manager behavior: [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2421128] and [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2421127] and [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2421120] and [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/opinion/2421312] {{bug|691921}}

'''Firefox 10'''

* Complaints about dropdowns not working with arrow keys: [http://input.mozilla.com/en-US/?product=firefox&sentiment=sad&locale=en-US&date_end=&date_start=&version=10.0a1&q=arrow+bar] (probably {{bug|690668}} but a lot of complaints for somthing that's x64 specific).
** Should get fixed after a quick bug review.

Dandonkulous:

== APP HARDENING ==
'''Refactor client-side code and the related server-side pieces that support it'''

<onlyinclude>
{| class="fullwidth-table sortable"
|- style="background:#efefef"
| '''Summary'''
| '''Details'''
| '''Difficulty'''
|-
| Retrofit the site’s JS code with client-side MVC model
| The JavaScript needs a major refactoring and integration of a cleaner JS MVC system.
| HARD
|-
| Revision queue for editor actions
| Create a back-end mechanism that organizes and executes revisions in the proper order, regardless of how or when various async, revision-creating events finish processing.
| HARD
|-
| Refactor and clean-up CSS
| The CSS across the site is redundant and sub-optimal. We will refactor and slim down all the style sheets that need it.
| MEDIUM
|-
| Increase page load performance
| Minify and gzip all assets, integrate a legit dependency system in FlightDeck.
| EASY
|-
| Package build speed optimization
| Look into both software and hardware options for decreasing build times and increasing stability of the service.
| UNKNOWN
|-
| Update ACE editor to latest stable version
| Update the ACE editor and ensure that it recognizes and correctly handles debugging suggestions for the advanced ES5 keywords and methods found in Firefox.
| MEDIUM
|}
</onlyinclude>

== ADVANCED SEARCH ==
'''Provide advanced search facets/filters and better fuzzy search'''

<onlyinclude>
{| class="fullwidth-table sortable"
|- style="background:#efefef"
| '''Summary'''
| '''Details'''
| '''Difficulty'''
|-
| Add advanced facets/filters
| FlightDeck search should allow for more advanced facets and filters that allow developers a more convenient way to find the result set they are looking for.
filter: author/owner
filter: dependencies
facet: number of forks
facet: most active (recency of last update in ratio to # of total commits divided by age)
facet: size of the add-on/library
facet: number of dependencies
| MEDIUM
|-
| Enhance fuzzy search
| The full-text search should be augmented to allow for fuzzy search in the same vein as other full-text search engines like Solr.
| UNKNOWN
|-
| Develop a system for elevating user libraries
| We need to analyze and discuss the best way to expose well made user libraries to the community. Will this be a search-based solution, some kind of repository that is managed, or something else that we haven’t considered?
| UNKNOWN
|}
</onlyinclude>

== AMO INTEGRATION ==
'''Make it easy for developers to use/view AMO features from the Builder'''

<onlyinclude>
{| class="fullwidth-table sortable"
|- style="background:#efefef"
| '''Summary'''
| '''Details'''
| '''Difficulty'''
|-
| Ability to push add-ons to AMO
| FlightDeck should allow developers to push their add-ons to AMO with any associated meta data pre-populated.
| HARD
|-
| Provide AMO status messages
| FlightDeck should sync messages from AMO that let the developer know at what stage in the add-on life-cycle a given add-on is at.
| MEDIUM
|-
| Share AMO sessions via OAuth
| FlightDeck should use AMO’s OAuth service to share sessions, thus eliminating the need for the user to login multiple places with the same credentials.
| HARD
|}
</onlyinclude>

== EDITOR ENHANCEMENTS ==
'''Augment the editor in the Builder with new add-on specific development features'''

<onlyinclude>
{| class="fullwidth-table sortable"
|- style="background:#efefef"
| '''Summary'''
| '''Details'''
| '''Difficulty'''
|-
| Code completion for official API modules
| Code completion should be added for all the add-on kit and api-utils modules. This shall include object and method completion for any public objects/functions provided by the module.
| MEDIUM
|-
| Code completion for third-party libraries
| Code completion should be extended to support third-party. It should be aware of when a library has been introduced into the environment with the require() statement and load the associated completion data into ACE.
| HARD
|-
| Code completion for require() calls
| Code completion will be offered for all modules accessible via require(). This feature will be context dependent.
* EXAMPLE: If Library A is packaged with Modules B and C, the require() string values for Modules B and C should show up in code completion when the developer user types “require(“ into the ACE editor.
| MEDIUM
|-
| API Stubs
| Create a UI that allows developers to auto-populate stubs for APIs to the editor that add appropriate code templates and files for the API in question. Comments should optionally be included within the skeleton to describe the various parts of the code and what developers need to input in the unpopulated areas.
| HARD
|}
</onlyinclude>

== VERSION CONTROL INTEGRATION (Github) ==
'''Allow users to use Github as their version control system'''

<onlyinclude>
{| class="fullwidth-table sortable"
|- style="background:#efefef"
| '''Summary'''
| '''Details'''
| '''Difficulty'''
|-
| Enable linking of Github accounts
| Developers should be able to link their Github and FlightDeck accounts. This link should provide simple mirroring for add-ons and libraries they choose to host on GitHub. We will not support things like merging and other complex git actions.
| HARD
|-
| Develop a simple push/pull flow from the Builder to Github
| Pulls should sync all local and server stored files with GitHub’s copy of the user’s add-on, if there are unpushed changes, alert the user and require that they either blow out unpushed changes or merge them outside of the Builder. Allow developers to push changes to an associated Github repo if there are no conflicts detected. If conflicts are found, notify the user that syncing is not possible until they resolve the conflicts outside of the Builder.
| MEDIUM
|}
</onlyinclude>

== COLLABORATION AND SHARING ==
'''Enable multi-user collaboration and advanced user permissions'''

<onlyinclude>
{| class="fullwidth-table sortable"
|- style="background:#efefef"
| '''Summary'''
| '''Details'''
| '''Difficulty'''
|-
| Ability to add collaborators to add-ons/libraries
| Developers will have the option to grant collaborative permissions for add-ons and libraries to other registered users of FlightDeck. The permissions should account for the following:
* The collaborator can access and edit an add-on or library they are given permission to regardless of its public/private state.
* The add-on or library owner should have control over the collaborator’s ability change which revision is marked as the base version.
* Permissions to edit an add-on or library are package-wide, thus they needn’t be configurable on a per file basis.
* The owner should have the ability to grant permissions that enable collaborators to invite other collaborators.
* The permissions settings for a collaborator should be able to allow or disallow the collaborator from editing the add-on or library’s properties data (Name, Description, etc.)
| HARD
|}
</onlyinclude>

== CLIENT-SIDE EDITING & TESTING ==
'''Allow the Builder to edit and test add-ons locally'''

<onlyinclude>
{| class="fullwidth-table sortable"
|- style="background:#efefef"
| '''Summary'''
| '''Details'''
| '''Difficulty'''
|-
| Sync, edit, and save data locally
| Enable the app to CRUD add-on/library data on the local file system.
| HARD
|-
| Compile add-on XPIs locally
| Allow for client-side creation of XPIs using a TBD JavaScript version of the CFX build tool
| HARD
|-
| Enable offline use of the app
| Handle the offline state so that the app runs normally and syncs any necessary changes when a connection is acquired.
| HARD

= Friends of the Tree [[Image:Tree.gif|Friends of the Tree]] =
* The entire Softvision team in Romania for helping QA qualify every Firefox release this quarter and their continued participation in every testday. They have enabled quick turnaround on releases/chemspills, and enabled us to extend typical testday hours from 8 hours to 20 hours -- they make 'awesome' possible. (ashughes)

* Amy Rich and Chris Cooper for keeping the Thunderbird releng infrastructure online during a difficult move to a new data center (John O'Duinn)

*SUMO wants to thank Scoobidiver for being the most prolific writer and reviewer of knowledge base articles and for then turning around and localizing them all in French. We'd also like to thank Alice Wyman for her invaluable contributions to the SUMO knowledge base over the last three and a half years.

= Product Status Updates =

== Firefox Future (8, 9, 10) ==
* [https://blog.mozilla.com/blog/2011/09/27/mozilla-firefox-significantly-reduces-memory-use-to-make-web-browsing-faster/ We shipped Firefox 7]!
** And then a [http://blog.mozilla.com/addons/2011/09/28/issue-discovered-with-firefox-add-on-upgrades/ quick update] to fix disappearing (but not actually gone!) addons
** Public reaction seems really positive
* Next migration day is November 8

== Firefox Current (3.6, 4.0-7.0) ==
* '''We intend to [https://wiki.mozilla.org/Releases/Firefox_3.6_MU advertise 7.0.1 to 3.6 users on Thursday, October 6th]'''...this week!
** If you know of any reasons why we should not, please email [mailto:release-drivers@mozilla.org release-drivers]
* There will be a 3.6.24, shipped with Firefox 8
** Not impacted by the ESR proposal
* Firefox 3.6 EOL is going to be determined by the outcome of ESR

== Mobile Firefox ==

=== The bigger issues ===
* Will Java front-end be feasible? Doug T. is driving toward an initial pros/cons analysis over the next week
* Flash support will land on nightly in the next few days, need to evaluate and set criteria for whether it would be good enough to ship (Note, this is smartphones only, because it's Gingerbread and earlier, not Honeycomb)
* Startup shrink continues. We're capturing baseline measurements for mem usage and responsiveness so that we can track optimization wins. We are also looking at analysis of metrics across release channel builds.

=== Top three customer issues and plan to fix ===
* Startup/stability; 38% of 1 & 2-star ratings on Android Market are "slow/unstable"; startupshrink project is the plan to fix
* Other performance themes: page loading performance and scrolling/panning performance; getting quit in the background; memshrink project is the plan to fix

==== Just landed in Aurora for Firefox 9 ====

* Major tablet UX refresh - good feedback on input so far
* Webapps support
* More locale picker work
* Camera
* Need to make decisions on:
** Flash on demand (front-end patch getting better)
** UA
** Featurettes, like the Clear Private Data changes (need to triage)

== Thunderbird ==
Nothing to see here. Move along, move along.

== Drumbeat ==

* Are there any issues in advance of today's release we should discuss?

=== Other Topics ===
* Arron starts next week, his first priority is going to be the search service and all the various app touch-points that rely upon it (such as the library modal in edit view). I'm thinking he will also take on code completion in the editor, any thoughts about these work assignments?
* Moving to Shipyard and Jinja: where are we at, what's the next step?
* Our "1.0" release target is now officially Q1 2012 what are the must haves?
** Close as possible to 0 bugs on existing features
** BrowserID integration
** Code completion (first round, SDK modules only)
** Shipyard & Jinja
** Hardening
** No lingering tracebacks (such as: "2 profiles returned!")

== Schedule & Progress on [[Releases|Upcoming Releases]] ==

===Firefox Desktop ===
==== Release (3.6, 7) ====

==== Beta (8) ====

==== Aurora (9) ====
* We got some really nice capabilities uplifted from m-c to Aurora yesterday. Here's a taste.
** "Type Inference" giving us up to 44% performance improvements on AWFY
** Twitter Search
** "Two-finger swipe for Lion" for back and forward navigation on Mac 10.7 Lion.
** "New Lion-ized theme for Lion" toolbars, icons, buttons, etc.
** Tweaks to the Windows theme for Win7 consistency
** You can now create bookmarks by dragging text URLs to bookmarks toolbar
** Now you can drag a link from another app and just drop it on Firefox and it will load
** "Always restore pinned tabs" No matter what the users settings for restoring tabs (or not) the App Tabs should always be restored.
** "Improve responsiveness of history removals" deleting large numbers of history items from the Library view used to hang the browser forever. now it is much faster.
** "Add support for fave icons on jump list uri entries" Windows 7 JumpLists, a pretty important windows integration feature, just got a lot better. Right click on Firefox in the taskbar and see the beautiful icon-ified jumplist popup.
** "should be able to reset a resized textarea" Users can resize text areas in Firefox. If you resize a textarea and then double click on the resizer it will reset to the original dimensions.
** "Sync should never complain about a network problem anymore unless you the Sync Now menu item/toolbar button is clicked." Sync is getting less noisy with its errors.
** "Implement font-stretch property" was completed in 9. It's notable because it was filed in 1999 :-)
** "add mouseenter and mouseleave DOM events" high-profile web devs have been begging for this for a good while.
** "Implement CSS3 columns shorthand" CSS 3 columns are more important than ever and with IE 10 (and Windows 9) adding support for multi-column layout, we're finally getting there with colums.
** "Implement CSS3 text-overflow: <left> <right>"
** "API for controlling fullscreen from content" (still preffed off.)
** "Implement temporal dimension portion of Media Fragments URI specification for video/audio" This is kind of a huge step for Open Video.

==== Nightly (10) ====
* The last week of trunk development was pretty great. Most of this made the uplift to Aurora as well.
** Bug 635645 - consider increasing the amount of scrolling performed by using the arrow keys -- This makes us scroll fast like all the other browsers. Easy win on perceived performance.
** Some nice tweaks to from front-end folks
*** Bug 684450 - Remove stop/go/reload button affordance and streamline other location bar icons
*** Bug 689051 - drop the drop shadow on the back button for Windows 7
*** Bug 632365 - Delay status updates for links further
*** Bug 462117 - Add specialized video controls for small-dimension media.
*** Bug 472942 - VideoDocument should center video in tab

=== Firefox Mobile ===

==== The bigger issues ====
* Will Java front-end be feasible? Doug T. is driving toward an initial pros/cons analysis over the next week
* Flash support will land on nightly in the next few days, need to evaluate and set criteria for whether it would be good enough to ship (Note, this is smartphones only, because it's Gingerbread and earlier, not Honeycomb)
* Startup shrink continues and the focus is to get us ready for toronto work week. We're capturing baseline measurements for mem usage and responsiveness so that we can track optimization wins. We are also looking at analysis of metrics across release channel builds.
* We need to agree across groups on goals for downloads and active users for Q4 - Jay will drive this
* IME and keyboard are being tackled by alexp, masayuki, snorp and blassey

==== Top three customer issues and plan to fix ====
*startup/stability; 38% of 1 & 2-star ratings on Android Market are "slow/unstable"; startupshrink project is the plan to fix
*other performance themes: page loading performance and scrolling/panning performance; getting quit in the background; memshrink project is the plan to fix
*flash player; biggest issue on SUMO every week since launch; mobile platform group is working on a click-to-play solution

==== 7 ====
* Released to Android market
* Ad-Block plus is likely the only major add-on affected by "hidden" add-on issue, no plan (let's discuss) to revert to 6.0.
* Reminder: Key Features in this release
** Copy & Paste
** Added a ‘Quit’ action to the Android menu
** Language detection on first-run
** Improved image rendering on Tegra-based tablets and phones (see bug 669851)
** The WebSocket API is now available in Firefox for Android (see bug 537787)

==== 8 ====

==== 9 ====

* Major tablet UX refresh - good feedback on input so far
* Webapps support
* More locale picker work
* Camera
* Need to make decisions on:
** Flash on demand (front-end patch getting better)
** UA
** Featurettes, like the Clear Private Data changes (need to triage)

===Firefox Sync===
* Fx7 - [[Firefox/Features/Instant_Sync|Instant Sync]]
* Beta (8) - [[Firefox/Features/Instant_Sync|Instant Sync]] - remaining piece
** Relanded Drop single DeviceInterval to 1 hour. See {{bug|678588}} and crash bug {{bug|598774}} for more info.
* Firefox 10+:
** [[Services/Sync/Sync_Setup_Improvements_Desktop|Improving Sync Set Up]] - In development
** [[Services/Sync/Push_to_device|Push to Device]] - In development. You can play with an add-on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/send-tab-to-device/ here].
** [[Services/Sync/Addon_Sync|Addon Sync]] - In development.

=== Add-on Builder ===
* Q3 2011 goals are on-track for completion
* AMO integration nearing completion
* Builder "1.0" public launch is targeted for mid-Q1 2012

* final release on schedule for Tuesday, October 25, two weeks before Firefox 8
* will probably move up final release one week to Tuesday, October 18, three weeks before Firefox 8 ([https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla-labs-jetpack/e0RkE4zW9ew discussion])

Development (1.3 -> Firefox 8, 9)

* merge to stabilization branch on schedule for Tuesday, October 25
* will probably move up merge and final release one week to ship three weeks before Firefox 9

== Feedback Summary ==
=== Desktop ===
Got a little busy with 7.0.1 so here's a copy-paste of the note I sent to rrrt last night:

*Broken extensions:
**Yahoo Toolbar is a big one, apparently bookmarks stored there are wiped out entirely. Lots of complaints of dataloss here. (May also be bug 680802)
**One or two people saying noscript went missing (that's bug 680802).
**Lots of complaints about Norton toolbar -- [http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Firefox-7-0-Compatibility-Patch-is-now-available/td-p/547384 Users have to update via Norton first before updating Firefox.]
**Kaspersky doesn't work at all.
**Java console also making a reappearance.
**1Password - From kev "1Password switched to a full JS implementation a while back. Users have been reluctant (from what I understand) to upgrade because there's some functionality loss."
**Some banking extension (maybe trusteer)
**Roboform (also lots of complaints)
*Spike in people saying they lost bookmarks/favorites -- may be Yahoo toolbar. I know people about two weeks ago were saying that we "forced Yahoo on them" so I'm not sure what's going on and Yahoo may have eaten the bookmarks. Or it can be the usual upgrade = profile loss.

__FORCETOC__

== Actions from Last Week ==

* Sheila to come back on {{bug|687991}} -- crashes on alice.it without stack
** Fixed another bug so we could get the crash reports. Crash only showing in builds from 20110923 or earlier so appears fixed by {{bug|687768}}.
* Johnath to ping JB about Thunderbird participation in this meeting
** Sent mail, they are going to participate, but are going to lurk for a few weeks first (hi tbirders!)
* Johnath to ping Todd about apps participation in this meeting
** Sent mail...

== Schedule & Progress on [[Releases|Upcoming Releases]] ==

===Firefox Desktop ===
==== Release (3.6, 7) ====

==== Beta (8) ====

==== Aurora (9) ====
* We got some really nice capabilities uplifted from m-c to Aurora yesterday. Here's a taste.
** "Type Inference" giving us up to 44% performance improvements on AWFY
** Twitter Search
** "Two-finger swipe for Lion" for back and forward navigation on Mac 10.7 Lion.
** "New Lion-ized theme for Lion" toolbars, icons, buttons, etc.
** Tweaks to the Windows theme for Win7 consistency
** You can now create bookmarks by dragging text URLs to bookmarks toolbar
** Now you can drag a link from another app and just drop it on Firefox and it will load
** "Always restore pinned tabs" No matter what the users settings for restoring tabs (or not) the App Tabs should always be restored.
** "Improve responsiveness of history removals" deleting large numbers of history items from the Library view used to hang the browser forever. now it is much faster.
** "Add support for fave icons on jump list uri entries" Windows 7 JumpLists, a pretty important windows integration feature, just got a lot better. Right click on Firefox in the taskbar and see the beautiful icon-ified jumplist popup.
** "should be able to reset a resized textarea" Users can resize text areas in Firefox. If you resize a textarea and then double click on the resizer it will reset to the original dimensions.
** "Sync should never complain about a network problem anymore unless you the Sync Now menu item/toolbar button is clicked." Sync is getting less noisy with its errors.
** "Implement font-stretch property" was completed in 9. It's notable because it was filed in 1999 :-)
** "add mouseenter and mouseleave DOM events" high-profile web devs have been begging for this for a good while.
** "Implement CSS3 columns shorthand" CSS 3 columns are more important than ever and with IE 10 (and Windows 9) adding support for multi-column layout, we're finally getting there with colums.
** "Implement CSS3 text-overflow: <left> <right>"
** "API for controlling fullscreen from content" (still preffed off.)
** "Implement temporal dimension portion of Media Fragments URI specification for video/audio" This is kind of a huge step for Open Video.

==== Nightly (10) ====
* The last week of trunk development was pretty great. Most of this made the uplift to Aurora as well.
** Bug 635645 - consider increasing the amount of scrolling performed by using the arrow keys -- This makes us scroll fast like all the other browsers. Easy win on perceived performance.
** Some nice tweaks to from front-end folks
*** Bug 684450 - Remove stop/go/reload button affordance and streamline other location bar icons
*** Bug 689051 - drop the drop shadow on the back button for Windows 7
*** Bug 632365 - Delay status updates for links further
*** Bug 462117 - Add specialized video controls for small-dimension media.
*** Bug 472942 - VideoDocument should center video in tab

=== Firefox Mobile ===

==== The bigger issues ====
* Will Java front-end be feasible? Doug T. is driving toward an initial pros/cons analysis over the next week
* Flash support will land on nightly in the next few days, need to evaluate and set criteria for whether it would be good enough to ship (Note, this is smartphones only, because it's Gingerbread and earlier, not Honeycomb)
* Startup shrink continues and the focus is to get us ready for toronto work week. We're capturing baseline measurements for mem usage and responsiveness so that we can track optimization wins. We are also looking at analysis of metrics across release channel builds.
* We need to agree across groups on goals for downloads and active users for Q4 - Jay will drive this
* IME and keyboard are being tackled by alexp, masayuki, snorp and blassey

==== Top three customer issues and plan to fix ====
*startup/stability; 38% of 1 & 2-star ratings on Android Market are "slow/unstable"; startupshrink project is the plan to fix
*other performance themes: page loading performance and scrolling/panning performance; getting quit in the background; memshrink project is the plan to fix
*flash player; biggest issue on SUMO every week since launch; mobile platform group is working on a click-to-play solution

==== 7 ====
* Released to Android market
* Ad-Block plus is likely the only major add-on affected by "hidden" add-on issue, no plan (let's discuss) to revert to 6.0.
* Reminder: Key Features in this release
** Copy & Paste
** Added a ‘Quit’ action to the Android menu
** Language detection on first-run
** Improved image rendering on Tegra-based tablets and phones (see bug 669851)
** The WebSocket API is now available in Firefox for Android (see bug 537787)

==== 8 ====

==== 9 ====

* Major tablet UX refresh - good feedback on input so far
* Webapps support
* More locale picker work
* Camera
* Need to make decisions on:
** Flash on demand (front-end patch getting better)
** UA
** Featurettes, like the Clear Private Data changes (need to triage)

===Firefox Sync===
* Fx7 - [[Firefox/Features/Instant_Sync|Instant Sync]]
* Beta (8) - [[Firefox/Features/Instant_Sync|Instant Sync]] - remaining piece
** Relanded Drop single DeviceInterval to 1 hour. See {{bug|678588}} and crash bug {{bug|598774}} for more info.
* Firefox 10+:
** [[Services/Sync/Sync_Setup_Improvements_Desktop|Improving Sync Set Up]] - In development
** [[Services/Sync/Push_to_device|Push to Device]] - In development. You can play with an add-on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/send-tab-to-device/ here].
** [[Services/Sync/Addon_Sync|Addon Sync]] - In development.

===[[AMO/FlightDeck/0.9.7|Add-on Builder]]===
* Q3 2011 goals are on-track for completion
* AMO integration nearing completion
* Builder "1.0" public launch is targeted for mid-Q1 2012

=== Add-on SDK ===

Release (1.1 -> Firefox 7)

* 1.0 -> 1.1 repack occurred Monday, September 26
* repack process experienced some problems; they have now been resolved
* repack post-mortem to take place this week or next

Stabilization (1.2 -> Firefox 7, 8)

* second test build, 1.2b2, spun yesterday, Tuesday, September 27 ([https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla-labs-jetpack/7ZnM34nwpJM announcement])
* final release on schedule for Tuesday, October 25, two weeks before Firefox 8
* will probably move up final release one week to Tuesday, October 18, three weeks before Firefox 8 ([https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/mozilla-labs-jetpack/e0RkE4zW9ew discussion])

Development (1.3 -> Firefox 8, 9)

* merge to stabilization branch on schedule for Tuesday, October 25
* will probably move up merge and final release one week to ship three weeks before Firefox 9

== Feedback Summary ==
=== Desktop ===
Got a little busy with 7.0.1 so here's a copy-paste of the note I sent to rrrt last night:

*Broken extensions:
**Yahoo Toolbar is a big one, apparently bookmarks stored there are wiped out entirely. Lots of complaints of dataloss here. (May also be bug 680802)
**One or two people saying noscript went missing (that's bug 680802).
**Lots of complaints about Norton toolbar -- [http://community.norton.com/t5/Norton-Internet-Security-Norton/Firefox-7-0-Compatibility-Patch-is-now-available/td-p/547384 Users have to update via Norton first before updating Firefox.]
**Kaspersky doesn't work at all.
**Java console also making a reappearance.
**1Password - From kev "1Password switched to a full JS implementation a while back. Users have been reluctant (from what I understand) to upgrade because there's some functionality loss."
**Some banking extension (maybe trusteer)
**Roboform (also lots of complaints)
*Spike in people saying they lost bookmarks/favorites -- may be Yahoo toolbar. I know people about two weeks ago were saying that we "forced Yahoo on them" so I'm not sure what's going on and Yahoo may have eaten the bookmarks. Or it can be the usual upgrade = profile loss.
*Firefox not responding randomly. (May be bug 686025 but triggered by the update or some users are saying that they are updating directly from 5 because of this problem but it's back.)
*Lost sessions (but we see this with almost every update) -- may be worse this time but hard to say.
*A few complaints about the missing http (not a lot... but some comments that it broke intranet pages and general whining)
*Maybe something about Yahoo mail layouts being screwed up (can't reproduce here.)

* Are there any issues in advance of today's release we should discuss?

=== Other Topics ===
* Get prepared to hand Arron a crib sheet on how to get Builder going, what he should know about our ES search implementation, and general style and conformance points you want him to study up on.
* Where are we at with the push-to-AMO dashboard features?
* I am thinking we should target our 1.0 release for 2012 Q1 and list it as a quarterly goal, thoughts?

=== Other Topics ===
* Work with Zac to come up with a standard way of identifying DOM nodes in the pages he needs to run Selenium on. This can be IDs, custom attributes, or whatever else you feel is best.
* From the "push new version" action on the previously discussed AMO sync mock (http://imgur.com/k0L7B), what are the required inputs the user needs to make in the modal we'll show them besides picking which revision they want to push?
* What parts of the AMO integration are working in master now? What work still needs to be done?
* Balanced focus on several things is fine as always, but do make sure we are goal-complete and ready for release to live no later than September 21st.
