**www.getpersonas.com and addons.mozilla.org will be whitelisted automatically | |||
*if the site is not whitelisted, clicking will verify that the site is allowed to install software before installing the persona | |||

The patch is complete and landed, waiting for baking before landing on the 1.9.2 branch. | |||

*Periodic update check '''(Dao - {{bug|520346}}, ETA ???)''' | |||
*Performance testing (feature should be Ts/Txul neutral without a persona applied, and have a minimal, well-understood impact with one applied) '''(Who's going to own this?)''' | |||
*EM exposure of installed personas, recent personas '''(Dave - <s>{{bug|510909}}</s>, done)''' | |||
'''P2''' | |||
*Fast theme switcher UI | |||
* | *Clearer linkage from prefs dialog to EM themes UI | ||
*Linkage from EM -> AMO personas gallery | |||
*EM exposing authorship/homepage details | |||
'''P3''' | |||
the | *Supplemental images | ||
**Dialog backgrounds | |||
**Theme the firefox start page | |||
*Support the notion of "favourites" (persistently stored, auto-fetched based on JSON feed contents) | |||
== Server/Backend Changes == | |||
Needs: | If we're using the JSON object presented in the DOM event, instead of the JSON feed, then we need: | ||
* preview image | |||
*API to request the latest/up-to-date JSON object for a persona, given an ID | |||
http://server/static/1/0/34510/index_1.json | |||
the two single digits in the middle are the second to last and last digits of the id. | |||
We also talked about needing some extra features in the JSON object: | |||
Needs: | |||
*preview image | |||
if you want to use the current preview image, it's | if you want to use the current preview image, it's | ||
/static/1/0/34510/preview.jpg | /static/1/0/34510/preview.jpg | ||
*32x32 icon | |||
/static/1/0/34510/preview_small.jpg | |||
Note that the code to generate these is not live yet. We'll also need to go through the old personas and generate these files. | |||
*summary text | |||
Will be in the json object as "description" | |||
(also needs to be checked in, pushed, then everything has to be rebuilt) | |||
