Data Synchronization

  • First pass at moving toward heuristic vs. timed data synchronization to achieve "real-time" seamless propagation of changes.
  • Additional data types supported to include: saved passwords, tabs & windows, saved form data and search history.

Data Sharing

  • Secure read-only sharing of existing bookmark folder with another Weave user.
  • Notifications delivered via XMPP.
  • Ability to revoke or delete share by initiating or receiving party.
  • Framework but no support for 1-N sharing.

Security and Privacy

  • Ensure continued end-to-end data encryption and user-centric access controls through all use cases.
  • RSA support in binary components (to replace openSSL) and switching to 3DESC support via NSS.
Performance and Reliability
  • Increased robustness and error handling for all network operations.
  • Splitting deltas into multiple files for performance gains.

Build and Release Infrastructure

  • Full cross-platform support for required binary components (e.g. to make NSS scriptable by chrome)
  • Combining platform-specific builds to provide a single XPI that supports all platforms.

Search Components

  • Switch to plaintext usernames and human readable URL schema.
  • Logging and instrumentation of operational data to better understand scalability requirements.
  • User access delegation to specific server resources (e.g. .htaccess)
