Browser / Front End

  • no blockers
  • you're going to see some UI churn on trunk, get used to it
    • This will cause change. Things will not be the same as before.
    • IF YOU SEE A CHANGE YOU DON'T LIKE: Please sit with it for at least 48 hours before blogging/tweeting/irc pinging to tell us how terrible it is.
    • Change is hard, but important. We value input more than insults.
  • this quarter our big targets are:
    • starting UI changes for Firefox 4
    • reducing I/O on the main thread (performance)
    • supporting out of process plugins work (UI and integration work)
    • continuing to drive startup time
    • integrating jetpack, weave and iterating on personas

GFX Update

Layout Update

Content Update

Platform-specific Support Update

JS

  • ES5 changes landing
  • Interpreter rearchitecture underway
  • WebGL typed arrays landed

Startup Performance

Security

Electrolysis

Roundtable
