« previous week | index | next week »

Notices / Schedule

  • Firefox 5 shipped today (mobile and desktop, rock!)
  • Next source migration is July 5th

Firefox Development

Platform

GFX

JS

  • Brian Hackett plans to land the type inference branch to TM shortly before the next mc->aurora merge.
    • JS changes that want to go out for Fx7 would land directly to mc during the time between the TI->TM merge and the TM->mc merge.
    • TM would merge to mc just after the mc->aurora merge for max bake time on nightly.
    • He is currently seeing a ~1.6x improvement on Kraken and 1.1-1.3x on V8-V6 (vs trunk).

Layout

  • Jonathan Kew's font inspector API landed. You can now write extensions that will tell you exactly what font(s) are being used to render any given DOM range --- including the entire document, or a single character. For downloaded fonts you can get metadata including the license.

Plugins

  • [josh] Bug 90268: Content ownership of plugin instances is mostly working on all platforms. Patch is on the holly branch. Need to fix remaining test failures and some to-do items before reviews can start. Can probably have that done and reviews started by the end of the week.

DOM

Network

  • [hurley] NeckoNet now available. Standalone test suite for networking. Can record and replay test pages with different builds against custom-configured networking conditions. Will be adding features and improving usability quickly.

Accessibility

Multi-Process

Tree Management

  • Tree closure Wednesday June 22nd, 8-11am PDT
  • We have been running side by side tp4 and tp5
    • We would like to disable it next week on June 30th
    • comments/questions? bug 664831 - disable tp4 (except older release branches)

Stability Report

  • The overall crash numbers look good but the trunk has been a bit more variable than for FF5 and even FF6.
  • Weird spike yesterday due to a new signature - @0x12e117. All the reports appear to be dups so for now we are going to ignore this. It drove up the crash rate for a day (see graph).
  • 2 signatures that are not exactly new but have been at the top of the list for the past week or so...
  • New signature filed for 4.0.1 but present on other branches:
