=== Release Train ===
=== Release Train ===
* SeaMonkey will directly go to the permanent repositories, i.e. -aurora, -beta in addition to -central. Miramar is a Thunderbird-only release branch (as is comm-2.0 for SeaMonkey).
* For comm-aurora, we also should regard strings there as much frozen as possible. In the future, string freeze is the uplift from central to aurora, which matches Firefox.
* For comm-aurora, we also should regard strings there as much frozen as possible. In the future, string freeze is the uplift from central to aurora, which matches Firefox.
* If we have any actual fixes that don't need L10n changes (not enhancements) on central but not beta, they should go there if possible.
* If we have any actual fixes that don't need L10n changes (not enhancements) on central but not beta, they should go there if possible.
* SeaMonkey comm-aurora and comm-beta are buildable and tinderbox has run tests against them.
* Bug authors and/or reviewers should request relevant approvals for comm-aurora/beta when necessary.
* Callek is working on getting comm-aurora and comm-beta on MXR ({{bug|653424}}).
* Callek is working on getting comm-aurora and comm-beta on MXR ({{bug|653424}}).
* The correct version numbers are now on the release train.
* First beta of 2.3 is due out shortly and then we'll have about 3 weeks to release. Target release date is 16th August.

* KaiRo created a [[SeaMonkey/Features|SeaMonkey Features]] page and sub-pages for all those that are in development.
* KaiRo created a [[SeaMonkey/Features|SeaMonkey Features]] page and sub-pages for all those that are in development.
* The whole FAQ/AddonCompat information needs to be re-thought with versions in mind but InvisibleSmiley lacks the time to do it. It's a wiki so we can try to offload it. Ratty suggests involving imput from seamonkey-members and/or mozilla.support.seamonkey.

** vs. 63682 on 2.0 (and 4437 on 2.1) so about 20k have migrated from 2.0 to 2.2 in the last week.

==== Follow-ups and Issues ====
* Lost Bookmarks {{Bug|673474}} and Cookies {{Bug|673672}} on auto-update from 2.0.14 to 2.2.
** Bookmarks can be re-imported from bookmarks.html.
* A XUL Core bug causing symptoms like:
** {{Bug|671192}} Command "Paste without Formatting" in message window is missing.
** {{Bug|672258}} Wrong context menu can be shown if two different windowtypes have the same contextmenu id and xul cache is enabled.
** IanN is testing out a workaround suggested by Neil for the context menu issue, the core bug is still there though, but only we seem to be exposing it at the moment.
* Regression in Addressbook ({{Bug|671251}} Cannot drag & drop contacts to another address book) [fixed].
* Regressions in the Mail Advanced Search Window ({{Bug|671605}} Search window does not allow to open second message from result list) [fixed].
* Users are unhappy about various UX and usability issues with the new Data Manager.
** Ratty proposes that until all the major pain points are addressed, links to the old individual managers be established (probably from the various Data Manager panes).
* [InvisibleSmiley] We need to try harder to fix regressions ASAP. I feel there is still too much delay. IMO regressions from the last stable version need to be addressed with top priority, especially in light of the rapid release train.

* SeaMonkey 2.3 Beta 1 will probably be released tomorrow Wednesday 27th July.
* The release date for 2.3 final is still about 16th August.
 
Several breakages (AB, opening MailNews search results) have only been fixed after 2.3b1 was tagged. Should we respin?
* [Kairo] I'm against a respin, that's what a b2 is for and we'll need one anyhow.
* [IanN] My preference is that the b1 release notice, mentions the known issues.

* After quite some discussions, did a patch for support of bare IPv6 addresses in Data Manager ({{bug|665826}}) with some additions that also fixes potentially different but similar problems (like {{bug|635783}}). I hope this can even still land for SeaMonkey 2.3 in the current beta cycle.
* I also worked on website storage support ({{bug|588415}}), but I didn't get around yet to finish a good test for that, so people still need to wait for an official patch and add-on update.
* Discussed and somewhat-reviewed rsx11m's great work on more flexible page zoom levels ({{bug|621823}}). Nice to see other people now fixing those corners where I had to take shortcuts in heavy-lifting porting work I did for SeaMonkey.

'''[Ratty] How are we going to deal with e10s? I see stuff starting to land in mozilla/browser/ (preffed off).'''
* [InvisibleSmiley] given that Neil doesn't like ifdefs we'd probably have to hold off until something lands for good (preffed on).
* [Ratty] Do we have a plan going forward. Or are we just going to wing it on a prayer?
* [IanN] I think it would have to be discussed with TB crowd.
* In theory, any UI/widget changes will impact both us and TB but only if that UI needs to communicate with a website that sits in a content process. On the browser side, that's a lot, on the mailnews side, not so much.
* [IanN] Well I'm hoping Neil will have a good grasp of it (or at least better than me).
