  • Joe
    • Did a bunch of heads-down work with the Mobile folk during the work week. Have a couple of things still to sort out:
      • I'm dependent on Chris Jones for some shared memory work to make X shared memory work.
      • I have to fix a bug in drawing sub-tiles with shared memory canvases.
• OOPP
  • Jim
    • bug 547142 - (fixed) hulu activate window hang.
    • bug 547353 - (fixed) implemented a simple quirks mode for the child process, fixed silverlight mouse cursor position bug.
    • bug 539330 - (active) started looking at set cursor issues with windowless controls.
    • One worry: top crashes related to exiting full screen after video finishes playing & other topcrashes related to OOPP - are they getting enough traction?
  • Benoit
    • Core Animation is working with CARenderer!
    • We're working out perf and animation issues. Just got it working now.
    • Don't expect perf miracles until we can draw directly into OpenGL, which won't happen until we have an OpenGL layers implementation.
