Thunderbird Meeting Details

• Tuesday, July 15, 16:30 UTC (9:30am Pacific, 12:30pm Eastern)
• How to dial-in

Agenda

Action Items

Open

• dmose to do clarifying post about how TB 3.0 roadmap should work w.r.t feature freeze, string freeze, etc.

Thunderbird:Shredder a2

• All blockers believed fixed.
• Mac Tinderbox is having issues (bug 444949). gozer has provided us with hand-spun bits to tide us over; once we get some folks dogfooding these enough to believe they're about right, we can declare a branch date.
• Need to decide what to do w.r.t. reopening the tree
• 3.0a2 Tracking Doc

Move to Hg

• Waiting for reviews on bug 444686.
• Once they are done, we could go ahead and move, but would not be able to build with Lightning (bug 442566 - also awaiting reviews).
• SeaMonkey buildbots seem to be ready to go.
• Thunderbird buildbots/nightlies would be the only remaining issue.
• Draft documentation at devmo - see links at top of page for main content.
• Timing:
  • We have this week and next week before the Firefox Summit.
  • Doing a move late next week could mean that we get some issues that we need to resolve whilst we at the summit (awkward).
  • Can we agree a tentative date before the Summit so that we can get it out of the way?

QA Updates

• bugday:
  • last week - super results, all three sessions staffed
  • this week - proposed focus: trunk/TB3 UNCO, no recent activity (62 bugs), 3 sessions
  • we must get a better grip on confirming recent bugs from a customer service POV - UNCOnfirrmed hovers at a steady 80ish bugs
• Test Day for Shredder 3.0a2 still TBD
• notable: - (feel free to add something)

wsmwk

• triage/review various install bugs, as a result of my encounter with problems with TB20014: bug 443744 prompt for new account after installing TB20014, bug 442702 install of TB20014 fails with "invalid opcode" error message
• continue prep for QA of Shredder Alpha 2
• close 43 bugs / participate in bugday
• re-reviewed mass cleanup/QA of mailinews. Through spot checking bugs, and Nikolay's help checking whether reporters still exist, determined there probably aren't any substantial subsets that lends itself to bug comments or special attention. And there is also no need to save off, for future attention, previously mass changed bugs - 105 dated 2007-06-21 ss and 646 dated < 2007-04-21 (roughly pre TB2.0). In short, IMO most of these bugs are legit, despite the fact that most haven't been touched in years, and many were confirmed in the days when confirming when reported was the norm.
