General 1.9.1
These are bugs that fall outside of components covered by the Gfx, Content, Layout and JS groups:
Mobile 1.9.1 Update
Security
Multi-Process
- Initial docs with phases and SWAG schedule available.
- Initial focus will be responsiveness/stability, not security sandboxing
- We're looking for places where chrome JS currently touches content DOM directly... see mozilla.dev.platform post for more details.
jst: "we're going to need to remote arbitrary JS across processes to satisfy out of process plugins, so we may have the necessary machinery in place already"
- Decisions need to be made about how to approach the network stack (should we switch to chromium's network stack wholesale?), but I don't know the right way to have that conversation/make that decision (it's hard to know whether switching would reduce or extend the total time of the multiple-process work).
- why? "because the chromium network stack and IPC stack already work well together"
- but mapping that to existing necko API surface may be difficult
cjones: why do we want to centralize networking in the chrome process? Wouldn't it be better to have the content processes do their own networking? answers include: to avoid the weight of SSL/NSS in each process: to avoid complicating sharing activities for disk cache, cookies, and other shared state. we should evaluate this ourselves.

Tree Management
- Fixed intermittent orange on talos, Tshutdown tests enabled in talos last week, details here
- infrastructure load for april
- more machines coming to help deal with wait times
- long downtime next week for firmware update on equallogic (held off from last week, and from before FF3.5b4).
Roundtable
- If you worked on a user facing feature, please make sure it is on this list (which will be used to generate the press reviewer's guide, mozilla.com content, etc):
- Blog funnel starting up: Evangelism/Firefox3.5/35Days - will ask for help/writing
