  • Two mobile showstoppers should be ready for testing by this Friday (facets and geo-location). Geo-location, which is a global improvement, will push this evening Pacific Time, ready for test on Friday. Facet templates may push over the weekend, will have an update tomorrow.
  • Discussed having yahoo hide the 'local' facet for unsupported countries - this won't be ready for this Friday, but we'll be updated as to when this could be implemented ([KR] - Kev, I forgot to put this in my summary notes from yesterday's call)
  • Auto-correct results mitigation shipped last week; minor corrections to case-sensitivity and plural triggers pushing Thursday evening
  • Video changes will be somewhat dependent on MSE support. Will work with Program Mgmt and Javaun to work on timing
  • Hijack mitigation planning started, will have impacts/dependencies on addon signing and FHR self support, and eventually platform and front-end.

Hello

• Romain
  • MWC discussion

Polaris / Privacy

• Javaun
  • Tracking Protection timing update? Targets? Approvals?

EME

• Javaun

iOS

• Karen
  • Relying on cloud-based Reading list, Send Tab (via current sync infra), and FxA integration
  • Dogfooding program in discussion
  • Going to try creating a schedule that gets us in 'Spring' but don't know when in Spring exactly yet....

Spring Event

• Fx 38 is our target release to hit the best 'timing'
• Aiming to include:
  • iOS: v1 (best case), otherwise beta
  • cloud-based reading list -> feels like Desktop is a big risk?
  • send tab between Firefox instances ??
  • Hello improvements ?? -> fennec would want to have 'link creation' included but not likely in Fx 38 timeframe... think this helps close the remaining gap we *can* close in the near-term for mobile

Tools

• Trello to be used as project mgmt / engineering tool
• Aha to be trialled by the rest of the PMs to see if we want to use this as our roadmapping tool
